First thing, we dont want to connect all my RHEl servers to the internet (RHN). Second thing we dont have RHN satilite server (do we need to buy seperate license?). so other option you are saying is create your own RHN catalog locally and can do more to manage your machines. what we need to for this? do we need to buy any license for it?
Since all these options seems to be messy and expensive, what other options we have to update RHEL servers except ZLM.
Thanks for info.
