Hi there,
Please can you contact Red Hat support in regards to this issue. 
Connection refused messages could have been from RHN if it was down at 
the time. It is also possible that you have a network/firewall issue or 
something like a miss configured option for the yum-rhn-plugin 
connecting to RHN. Our support team could help troubleshoot the cause.

Regards,
Clifford.
