  Error Class Info:  
       You are getting this error because RHN has detected an abuse of  
       service from this system and account. This error is triggered when  
       your system makes too many connections to Red Hat Network. This  
       error can not be triggered under a normal use of the Red Hat Network  
       service as configured by default on Red Hat Linux.  

       The Red Hat Network services for this system will remain disabled  
       until you will reduce the RHN network traffic from your system to  
       acceptable limits.  

       Please log into RHN and visit https://rhn.redhat.com/help/contact.pxt  
       to contact technical support if you think you have received this  
       message in error.
