NAME

rhn_register - a program for registering with the Red Hat Network
 

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

rhn_register provides an interactive utility for registering a srever with the Red Hat Network.

When you run rhn_register, you will be prompted for the computer's root password if you are not running as root. This is because rhn_register needs read access to the RPM database. It also needs read/write access to the up2date systemid file in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid , and it's configuration in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date and /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn_register

rhn_register will start up a interactive utility for registering with the Red Hat Network. If you are using X, it will start up a client with a graphical user interface. If you are using the console, a text mode client will be started.

The first step is to provide the Red Hat Network with information for the creation of your new account, or information about your existing Red Hat Network or Red Hat website registration.

Please be sure to read the welcome messages, and the privacy statement that are presented.

rhn_register will also attempt to gather some basic information about the hardware, and software installed in the machine being registered. Please note that all of this information is optional, but without it, the functionality of Red Hat Network will be reduced.

rhn_register use a http based protocol for communication with Red Hat Network, so if you are behind web proxy, you may need to configure the proxy support before you can proceed.

To configure rhn_register, you can run it with the --configure option, or you can edit the configuration file /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn_register directly. A number of the command line arguments described below can also be used at runtime to override configuration options. There is also a text mode based configuration if invoked with with the --nox --configure option.

--configure

Configure rhn_register options. This will allow you to adjust things such as http proxy settings.

--nox

do not even attempt to use the gui component. Run the text mode version instead.

-h, --help

display help on command line arguments and exit

--verbose

output more information about what up2date is doing

-v, --version

output version information and exit

EXAMPLES

The following example starts up the interactive gui client.

up2date

The following example shows up2date being used in non-interactive batch mode.

up2date -u

This example shows up2date being used to discover which packages solve a set of deps manually on a Red Hat Linux 7.0 machine.

up2date --whatprovides "/bin/bash,gimp,libhistory.so.4.1"
bash-2.04-11
readline-4.1-5
gimp-1.1.25-1

This example shows how to start up the text based config tool.

up2date --nox --configure

This example shows how to use up2date to install a package with many deps that isnt currently installed.
