What is wrong with up2date? It is very unpredictable whether it will complete. Most of the time it hangs. I was completely unable to get anywhere with it at work (through a firewall). At home, it hangs half the time. Tonight it hangs 9 out of 10 times.
I used gentoo and had no problems with emerge. Is this something Redhat is aware of? Or is it accepted as normal?

Mark,
as mentioned earlier , configure your up2date to use mirrors... the main server is very loaded with all those updates (and it's been a busy week , with two kernel updates on fedora and one on the various versions of red hat)...
On http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html you can get a big list of mirrors...
