[rhn-users] Channel suddenly missing on currently valid subscription?

[Doerbeck, Christoph]

Redhat did do some maintenance to the AS3 i86 channels (merging 64bit).
This may (or not) have impacted your client registration.  I believe
the change occurred on Feb 1.  Just thought I'd throw that out there...

Michael,
I've had some recent problems with RHN where I had to delete the 3
__db.00x files from /var/lib/rhn, but the error was very different.

As for getting help, I have been able to contact my sales rep for help
with getting subscription info squared away. You might try that. If you
don't who that is, call the main toll free number, tell them you want to
speak with your sales rep.
