My bad, sorry.
The current up2date version is missing:
- a definition for newly installed up2date
- a config(noreplace) tag for /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources
I am pushing now a corrected version on the mirror.
i386:
up2date-gnome-4.5.5-7.centos.2.i386.rpm
up2date-4.5.5-7.centos.2.i386.rpm
x86_64:
up2date-gnome-4.5.5-7.centos.2.x86_64.rpm
up2date-4.5.5-7.centos.2.x86_64.rpm
howto fix:
----------
If it's update from 3.8, you should have a
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources.rpmsave
file just copy it to /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources to fix up2date. Or use yum
instead of up2date ;).
If up2date is broken due to the missing sources file, you can still use yum
to update up2date:
# yum update up2date
Last resort, I have attached the default /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources, just
copy it there.
Once again, sorry for the error, and thanks for reporting it. :)

### This describes the various package repositories (repos) that up2date will
### query for packages. It currently supports apt-rpm, yum, and "dir"
repos.
### Format is one repository (repo) entry per line, # starts comments, the
### first word on each line is the type of repo.
### The default RHN (using "default" as the url means use the one in
the
### up2date config file). This is required.
#up2date default
### Note: when a channel label is required for the non up2date repos,
### the label is solely used as an internal identifier and is not
### based on the url or any other info from the repos.
### An apt style repo (the example is arjan's 2.6 kernel repo).
### The format is:
### type channel-label service:server path repo name
#apt arjan-2.6-kernel-i386 http://people.redhat.com ~arjanv/2.5/ kernel
### Note: for apt repos, there can be multiple repo names specified (space
### seperated).
### A yum style repo. The format is:
### type channel-label url
#yum fedora-9-i386-stable
http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/yum/stable
yum centos-3-base http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/os/i386/
yum centos-3-addons http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/addons/i386/
yum centos-3-updates http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/updates/i386/
yum centos-3-extras http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/extras/i386/
#yum centos-3-extras http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/testing/i386/
#yum centos-3-centos+ http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/centosplus/i386/
### A local directory full of packages (a "dir" repo). For example:
#dir my-favorite-rpms-i386-9 /var/spool/RPMS/
# Multiple versions of all repos except "up2date" can be used.
Dependencies
# can be resolved "cross-repo" if need be.
