yes, it's yum. Look in the channel information (the first screen that appears when you use up2date at the bottom. up2date is simply a GUI interface for yum. To be honest with you, i prefer using yum anyway, it works better at updating the OS than Windoze Update ever has been.
The above info is wrong.
Up2date doesn't use any yum code. It can hower use either of the following repositories.
- yum repository - apt repository - rhn channel [aka RHEL]
Internally both up2date & yum invoke rpm [via rpm's python bindings].
