Given, that you have a valid (ie: paid) subscription and the machine is registered with the RedHat Network:
Code:yum update
You must always face the curtain with a bow.

Do you have an active Red Hat subscription?
If not, then you cannot update using Red Hat's repository. In that case you can point to a CentOS repository, or RPMForge.

Why bother? Just install CentOS.
Isn't the point of installing RHEL to get enterprise support/updates? If you aren't paying, then whats the point?
