[rhn-users] Provide a security certificate.

[Paul]

I don't remember needing a security certificate to run rhn_register for
any version of RHEL5 (5.1, 5.2, 5.3, not using 5.4 yet), did you do a
default install or customize it?

What is the exact command you are typing and the exact response from the
computer?

Cheers,

- Paul
