Have you run an rhn_check or has the server checked in get to get the new channel config? My guess would be it doesn't know about the channel yet. When you re-registered did you make sure the child channel is subscribed to by the base channel? I know some of it is low level and you might have checked already, but never hurts to ask. Also did you remove the repo or just the channel?
