Thanks for the response, Brandon.

Yes, I tried this multiple times.  Now, I've started to get it on
another host that used to work just fine!  Others are still OK, though.

I ran rhnreg_ks and got the same error.

Introspect error: The name org.freedesktop.Hal was not provided by any
.service files

So... I enabled haldaemon, and now this works.

It really gets a little irritating how Red Hat is ever-more dependent
upon a delicate web of ever-expanding services and packages.  Like how
my @Core install which does not have X must have 13 GNOME-related
packages.  I know I'm not the first to complain about this, and I won't
be the last, and there isn't any special reason why anyone would listen
to me after ignoring everyone else... but is there any chance that Red
Hat could NOT intricately link all of this stuff?  Why should @Core
install sound-related packages, Bluetooth related packages, and things
like HAL which are simply unnecessary on a server?
