    Hi,

    I have a server on a secure network. It does not have access to the internet directly. Instead I have to login to a trusted box, and from there login to the server. I want to register ths server on the redhat network, and I want to install the updates. Does anyone know how I could do this? I was thinking of using an ssh tunnel, but I dont know how to tell up2date to use the tunnel. Any thoughts?

    Thanks,
