After clicking Next on the Welcome Screen, the dialog box in Figure 4-4 will appear. This
means that a connection to Red Hat Network is being established and that your customized
list of updates is being retreived. This might take some time, depending on the speed of your
connection and the number of packages you have installed.

While you see this dialog box, the Red Hat Update Agent uses your unique Digital Cer-
tificate (

/etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid
available for your system. If there are no updated packages available for your system, the
dialog box in Figure 4-5 appears. Click Ok to exit the Red Hat Update Agent.
