As previously mentioned, the archives are your friend.

Fedora's version of up2date doesn't use RHN, so the concept of
entitlements doesn't mean anything.  By default it now uses yum
repositories (which can be changed to mirrors to fix the first part of
your message).

The current concept of "channels" are just different repositories.

If you have mistakenly tried to configure up2date to use RHN, you need to
edit the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file and put a "#" back in front of
the "up2date default" line.
