Hello, It's perfect. I totally understand now! Thanks a lot. I thought that rhn-clone-errata parsed the config file [ChanMap] block and then launched a sync for each chanmap found. I'll modify my script to call rhn-clone-errata for each channel now that I understand!
Would you prefer that I modify rhn-clone-errata.py to add an option to behave like I thought it was and provide you a patch?
