I tried installing the RHEL4 up2date rpm, but it conflicts with
rhn-client-tools.
Any ideas on how to access the up2date repo's for RHEL4 and earlier
in RHEL5?
eg. https://rhn.redhat.com
login, select your system, alter channel subsrciptions
from your system
# yum check-update
or
# yum --enablerepo=aaa --disablerepo=bbb list your_package
What Nick wants to do is view the packages available to a RHEL4 or
RHEL3 system from a RHEL5 system... i.e. install up2date on RHEL5 and
access the RHEL4 channels. You have suggested is the way to list all
the packages in a particular RHEL5 channel.
I don't think it's possible, because the methods of accessing RHN
differ completely between up2date and yum, but I'd be interested if
anyone does have a way to do this...
