What I quoted comes from the file called EULA in the rood directory of RHES
ver. 3 CD 1. From memory (I'm nowhere near the CD) it's the same file as can
be seen at http://www.redhat.com/licenses/rhel_rha_eula.html. The subscription
agreement as can be seen at
http://www.redhat.com/licenses/rhel_us_3.html?country=United+States& is an
entirely different document and has nothing much to do with software licenses
- indeed, it specifically refers to the EULA for information about software
licenses. Perhaps that is the document you refer to as "RHEL Support
Agreement" Paul?
