Better than Daniel's recent suggestion, IMHO is the useNoSSLForPackages option. Point all of your servers at the same squid proxy, turn on the use no SSL option, and all is well.
On that note, there's no good reason for packages to be downloaded via SSL, since they're all GPG signed anyway. Can we have useNoSSLForPackages=1 made the default in the next version of RHL?
Well except that you're passing authentication data in the clear.
