Figure 4-5. Configure RHN Proxy Server
13. In the Configure RHN Proxy Server page, provide or confirm the entries for all
required fields. The Administrator Email Address will receive all mail generated by
the Proxy, including sometimes large quantities of error-related tracebacks. To stem
this flow, consider establishing mail filters that capture messages with a subject of
"RHN TRACEBACK from hostname". To list more than one administrator, enter
a comma-separated list of email addresses.
The RHN Proxy Hostname is the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the RHN
Proxy Server. The RHN Parent Server is the domain name of the server serving
the Proxy — either the central RHN servers, another RHN Proxy Server or an
RHN Satellite Server. To connect to the central RHN servers, include the value
xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com. To connect to a Satellite or another Proxy, enter the
parent system's FQDN.
If the RHN Proxy Server will connect through an HTTP proxy, configure it using
the associated fields. Note that references to protocol, such as http://
or https:// should not be included in the HTTP Proxy Server field.
