Hi Les,

If you don't have a subscription then the key bits from the script are:
# RHEL 4 needs to be after -89
# RHEL 5 needs to be after -164
# RHEL 6 Affected Versions
# 6 GA: All Versions
# 6.1: Versions before -131.30.2
# 6.2: Versions before -220.25.1
# 6.3: Versions before -279.5.2
and that the tzdata should be from 2015
