Hello,
Thanks for the feedback.
So all your system are in version 5.6 minimum and some subscribe to the
updates channel, which now contains rhel 5.7 for example. Am I correct?
Could you please point me to some tutorial to setup mrepo and rhn? Do you
run mrepo and rebuild an iso every night or just once a week?

Thanks,

Pierre
