Fedora does not use RHN. You do not need to register anywhere to receive
updates. If you run the step and register using up2date / RHN applet the
tool will refuse to work as there is no Fedora channel with the RHN
service.
However, when I run up2 date the system goes to collect the packages and
then just seems to hang. Is anyone aware of anything else I should be
doing?
Correct the settings. Or even better: use "yum" to update package, to
install further or to uninstall unwanted.

Any particular reason why up2date is still front and center of Fedora,
it hasn't worked properly for me since FC2.
