Hi Brandon, thanks for the link. Since we don't run any virtualization on Red Hat and there are no calls to rhn_check in any crontab I can find on these servers I'm at a loss. The only thing I can think of is yum-updatesd and rhnsd are both running. But out of 23 servers, most of which have been checking in happily for months, RHN has locked out only 4 of them. They all seem to get locked out at random times; the first one being at 9:14am on Nov 21 and the latest one at 1am on Dec 16. I've already got the ticket open and escalated to highest priority so we'll see where they get with it. I really appreciate the confirmation that I'm not crazy in thinking that 240 minutes as the minimum acceptable check-in time is crazy.
