[rhn-users] Critical system on RHN due to completed errata remaining at status "None" rather than "Completed"?

Hi all,

 

I am very new to both Linux and RHN so please bear with me!

 

I am trying to set up a new RHEL 5 system but according to RHN, my
system is a critical system and is out of date. 

 

If I click on "Critical Updates Available (update now)", I am taken to
the list of relevant errata most of which have a status of "None"
although sometimes a handful have a status of "Pending" or "Failed" if I
have recently scheduled an update. However the errata with the "None"
status are all ones which I have previously scheduled and which
completed successfully according to the details tab of their individual
errata update pages. Should these not be at a status of "Completed" now
and therefore not still appearing in the list of errata which I still
need to apply?

 

I have scheduled a "Package List Refresh" from RHN which completed
successfully and also run rhn-profile-sync from the main machine in case
things weren't synched properly. 

 

I am at a loss as to what to do next to take my system out of its
"critical" status...or is RHN lying to me and really my system is ok?!

 

Any help gratefully received!

 

Wes
