Yeah, you can update RH or Fedora with apt-get or YUM once you set up the program and point to the repositories. Apt4RPM is a bit easier than using RH update manager. I was always getting timeouts from the official RH mirrors during the day. Late at night would sometimes work.

Wouldn't this be a good time to upgrade then?

I would sure hope so, maybe to a FC3? Then keeping up to do wouldn't be so hard if you were using the debian package management. Doesn't FC3 us something like that to update? I have never actually used FC yet.
Thanks,

FC3 also includes the up2date agent for keeping systems current.

So did 7.3. I used it until they pulled support (with six months left on my subscription). I'm using yum and the Fedora Legacy repositories now.
The "free" up2date servers were usually swamped any time there was an update - the paid service was certainly worth it for a production machine, and at, what was it, about $5/mo pretty reasonable.
