Once again, my RHEL 5 Xen server (with a whopping 2 virtual hosts) has
been booted from RHN.  I logged in this morning to find several dozen
emails (about every 2 minutes) from it telling me:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/rhn/virtualization/poller.py", line 281, in ?

Error Message:
    Abuse of Service detected for server xen.service.hiwaay.net (1015605337)
Error Class Code: 49
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.


Since I haven't changed any defaults, it is highly irritating to get an
error message that blames me for the problem.

I got this last August and opened a support ticket that went nowhere
(the "solution" was to delete my server in RHN and re-register it), with
RH support insisting I must have changed something to cause it.  A
little while later, RH released an update to fix the problem (thanks for
looking!), but now it is back again.

Anybody else seeing this?

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
