Figure 4-7. Upload SSL
In the Upload SSL page applicable only to a Proxy connecting to the central RHN Servers, lo-
cate the tar file created using the RHN SSL Maintenance Tool using the Browse button. It will
be named rhn-org-httpd-ssl-archive-MACHINENAME-VERSION .tar with the machine
name reflecting the Proxy’s hostname. Once located, click continue.
Note
Since you must be root to generate the SSL key, the resulting SSL tar file will be located in
/root/ssl-build/HOSTNAME/. This file will not be visible to a non-root user, therefore you
must copy the file to a location visible to the user running the browser.
Figure 4-8. Configure Monitoring
15. In the Configure Monitoring page, provide or confirm the hostname and IP address of the
parent server connected to by the RHN Proxy Server. This must be either an RHN Satellite
Server or another Proxy which is in turn connected to a Satellite. You cannot achieve Monitoring
through the central RHN Servers. When finished, click continue. The Install Progress page
appears.
