       actions for this particular system. This script reads the digital server ID from /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid and uses that to identify  the
       machine to the Red Hat Network. Upon successfull authentication, rhn_check will start processing the queued actions sequentially.

			 machine with Red Hat Network. This fucntion is called as
			 refresh(hardware) or refresh(rpmlist)
       new_systemid	 This action is used by the RHn Backend to update the Digital
			 system ID of this machine with a new one.
       update_packages	 This action will trigger rhn_check into running a package
			 update for a list of packages queued from the Red Hat Network.
			 rhn_check will use modules from the up2date client to download
			 the packages, solve dependencies and install the on the system.
