Well folks ...

1. The rhn applet indicates that there are updates waiting.  It seems to be 
able to get the header.info file in the rawhide tree and in fact you can wget 
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/headers/header.info and get 
the file.

2.  With access via ftp working but http not, I am not sure what is going on 
and would appreciate someone from Red Hat to clarify.  Others can speculate 
but we need Red Hat comment here.  We are fast approaching freeze time and I 
would like to get as much fixed as I can.
