I'm not so sure if I'm asking right question so please forgive me; I have RHEL AS 4 media with me here; my company have an active subscription to RHN from for a limited number of servers only. If I add more servers more than allowed channel subscription; up2date doesn't work as you know. That's why I'm introducing CentOS to my company. Now, I just wondering, is there any way I can update a RHEL box using other means rather than RHN? Excluding the manual FTP download and manual RPM installation; is there any other source and means I can use.
Again, I hope I'm asking this question safely here. Since I asked already similar question to RH mailing lists; and they arrogantly pointed me here in CentOS - well thanks to them; I found a new home and a new distro.

I have switched many machines from RHEL to Centos simply by replacing the redhat-release rpm with the centos-release rpm, installing the CentOS supplied yum rpm and running yum update. This has worked without issue on RHEL3 boxen. I've not ventured into 4 yet.
