1. Paying for Red Hat does not resolve the problem as I described it.

The Red Hat service provides for big bucks very slow, low bandwith access to it's updates. It's like watching paint dry when I have to download updates at work. I'll stick with free but erratic delivery if those are the choices. YOU DO NOT GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

We haven't had any problems with it - we're in Australia and we usually get downloads from RHN going at the maximum speed of our internet connection.

have the patience
