Actually, I found the problem. If you go into /usr/share/rhn you'll 
notice that there are several versions of the file RPM-GPG-KEY. When you 
run up2date and it asks you to install that file, RPM-GPG-KEY. On Fedora 
you have to install RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora. Since I'm just now going through 
and putting Fedora through it's paces I'm doing a few different 
installs. When I installed as a "personal" machine and went to run the 
update utility it messed up becasue it installed the wrong key. When I 
reinstalled as a server and was working in text mode I got fed up with 
the problem and went to look and see if the file was actually there, and 
then discovered the other key files. When I installed the -fedora 
version everything worked as expected.

  <pre wrap="">I had lots of problems using up2date. One poster
suggested that I just try running "yum update" and
that worked much better. My system was at work and
behind the corp firewall, so I had to type the
following to get YUM to work through the firewall:

Hope this helps.
