If you installed an RHN Proxy rhns-proxy-package-manager should indeed
by installed on your machine. The executable is rhn_package_manager
(which I wanna change... but that is just me).

If that RPM does not exist on your machine, please send *me*, not the
list, your RPM manifest please: rpm -qa. We'll figure out with is up.

Docs are definitely being worked on. And it is known that they need to
be improved. Clay, our docs guy is a machine and working like mad to
keep up and improve them.

Thanks,
