    Hi all,

    I've recently put 5 systems (4 x 7.2 and 1 x 7.3) onto basic RHN
    subscriptions and everything is working fine except for kernels.

    1. Am I right in that kernel actions by default are NOT done even when
    explicitly scheduled through RHN as they are on a skip list? I've
    scheduled removal of old kernels and it fails. I've scheduled installs of
    new kernels and it says it succeeded but no kernel is installed.

    2. Can you control the skip lists for a system through RHN or only through
    logging in to that server and configuring with up2date --configure

    3. Can I get RHN to stop reporting kernel updates for specified systems
    where I cannot upgrade the kernel due to raid card drivers etc? I've one
    system that has HEAPS of errata against it (all kernel ones) and I really
    dont care but it is cluttering up my display.

    4. Why do I get email notifications from RHN for errata against my systems
    where the email says it applies to my systems but none of them have the
    package installed or showing up the in the errata lists?
