[rhn-users] manual up2date of kernel not reflected in rhn

[Marty Merrick]

Diane,
I don't have to wait more than a few seconds. Sometimes I have a system
that fails to check in with RHN for some reason, and I do an up2date -p.
By the time I can change windows to look at RHN, it's gotten the new
info. Is it possible you didn't update ALL the kernel packages, and the
ones that are showing as old, well, really are?

You can do this to see what's really installed on the system and compare
that to what RHN thinks (in RHN do a list of installed packages and
enter "kernel" as the search terms):

rpm -qa | grep kernel
