What does

service rhnsd status

tell you?

How about

service rhnsd restart

rhnsd was up and running with the service rhnsd status.  The restart did
shutdown and restart the daemon under a new pid.  However, that did not
change the situation for reporting in to rhn.  Another note, manually
running rhn_check also did not actually produce any results.

What actually did work to solve this one was to remove the local
certificate, /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid, and reregister the system with
Red Hat Network.  Fortunately, I had entitlements available to do this.
I guess I could have deleted the system entitlement, too, prior to the
reregistration.  What I don't understand is "Why?" does this correct the
problem.
