Hello,
trying to replicate a rh el 6.1 configuration to a CentOS 6.0+CR.
Original upstream server was installed in 6.0 and then updated
gradually up to 6.1 and other packages (up to about first days of
October).
It is registered to additional channels such as High Availability,
Resilient Storage.
Overall its situation is this:
# rhn-channel -l
rhel-x86_64-server-6
rhel-x86_64-server-ha-6
rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6
rhel-x86_64-server-rs-6
rhel-x86_64-server-supplementary-6
rhel-x86_64-server-v2vwin-6
rhn-tools-rhel-x86_64-server-6

At the moment, I found some differences.
I'm going to post different e-mails for different packages

- ipa-python

It seems not available in CentOS, while there is ipa-client

On rh el:
# rpm -qi ipa-python

Donna if it is an error or a package new for rh el 6.1 and not already
put in final CentOS 6.1....
