Topic
Updated rhn-client-tools, rhnlib, rhnsd, and yum-rhn-plugin packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available.
Description
Red Hat Network Client Tools provide programs and libraries that allow a system to receive software updates from Red Hat Network.
The rhnlib packages provide a collection of Python modules used by Red Hat Network tools.
The rhnsd packages provide the Red Hat Network Services Daemon, a system service that automatically queries the Red Hat Network servers, determines which packages on the machine need to be updated, and performs appropriate actions.
The yum-rhn-plugin package provides support for connecting to Red Hat Network (RHN) and Red Hat Satellite server. Systems registered with RHN are able to update and install packages from Red Hat Network.
For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.5 Release Notes linked from the References section.
