You are unfortunately missing one point. The subscription to RHN is not what I was discussing.
If you want to open all your machines to RHN and grab the updates that way, it can be messy. If you wanted to get a SANE solution, then RHN Satellite server (A SEPARATE PRODUCT) is the one that was being discussed.
You create your own RHN catalog locally and can do more to manage your machines. However, that is EXPENSIVE.
