Thanks for the link and info Alexander.
Yea, I have a LOT of bedtime reading to get caught up on and unfortunately have not had time since my initial Fedora install yesterday. Not to worry, I am generally very good about reading over the docs but was caught short during this install as I was really needing to get up and running quickly.
Thanks to everyone for all of the great help. Lonnie

In relation to updates, I did not see any utility in the "System Settings" ro "System Tools" to do updates on the installed packages. There is only the "Add/Remove Applications" utility.
The only other way that I know to do it is to manually do it via the rpm command line utility.
Is there a graphical utility for this?

Lonnie, unfortunately you mean this question seriously. This is the reason why I sent you to the unofficial FAQ.
There is yum and up2date coming with Fedora for updates. up2date is both graphical as command line. From external you can get a yum GUI as well apt-rpm (command line for package management) and synaptic as it's GUI.
There is plenty of documentation about it. I once wrote this small paper for setting up up2date and yum: http://www.fedoranews.org/contributors/alexander_dalloz/mirror
Please read a bit.
