RedHat Network への登録
作成 : 2003/08/15
RedHat Network
RedHat をインストールしたら、RedHat Network（RHN）に登録する。 RHN に登録すれば、errata情報がメールで配信される、up2date ユーティリティを使用して簡単にパッケージのアップデートができるといったメリットがある。
RedHat Network への登録
RHN の Web サイトで登録することができるほか、シェルから up2date ユーティリティでも登録が可能。 ここでは、up2date ユーティリティを使用して RHN へ登録する。
# up2date
初めて up2date ユーティリティを実行すると、CUI ベースの登録メニューが表示される。 メニューに沿って、必要な項目に入力していく。 最初のメニューは RHN の概要案内なので、Tab キーで「Next」を選択して、Enter キーを押す。
