Chapter 6. Red Hat Network Website
6.3.1.1. Addresses
The Addresses page allows you to manage your mailing, billing and shipping addresses, as well as
the associated phone numbers. Just click Edit this address below the address to be modified, make
the changes, and click Update.
6.3.1.2. Change Email
The email address listed in the Your Account page is the address to which Red Hat Network sends
email notifications if you select to receive Errata Alerts or daily summaries for your systems on the
Your Preferences page.
To change your preferred email address, click Change Email in the left navigation bar. You are then
asked for the new email address. Enter it and click the Update button. A confirmation email is sent to
the new email address; responding to the confirmation email validates the new email address. Note
that false email addresses such as those ending in "@localhost" are filtered and rejected.
6.3.1.3. Account Deactivation
The Account Deactivation page provides a means to cancel your Red Hat Network service. Click
the Deactivate Account button to deactivate your account. The web interface returns you to the
login screen. If you attempt to log back in, an error message advises you to contact the Satellite
Administrator for your organization. Note that if you are the only Satellite Administrator for your
organization, you are unable to deactivate your account.

6.3.2. Your Preferences

The Your Preferences page allows you to configure Red Hat Network options, including:
• Email Notifications — Determine whether you want to receive email every time an Errata Alert is
applicable to one or more systems in your RHN account.
Important
This setting also enables Management and Provisioning customers to receive a
daily summary of system events. These include actions affecting packages, such
as scheduled Errata Updates, system reboots, or failures to check in. In addition
to selecting this checkbox, you must identify each system to be included in this
summary email. (By default, all Management and Provisioning systems are included
in the summary.) This can be done either individually through the System Details
page or for multiple systems at once through the System Set Manager interface.
Note that RHN sends these summaries only to verified email addresses. To disable
all messages, simply deselect this checkbox.
• RHN List Page Size — Maximum number of items that appear in a list on a single page. If more
items are in the list, clicking the Next button displays the next group of items. This preference
applies to system lists, Errata lists, package lists, and so on.
• "Your RHN" Start Page — select the information areas that are displayed on the Your RHN Start
Page. Check the box to the left of the information area you would like to include.
After making changes to any of these options, click the Save Preferences button in the bottom right-
hand corner.
