Just like with the upstream provider ... they do not have a EL4 update 1 section and an el4 update 2 section, etc. If you use up2date or RHN to update a machine, it is updated to the latest EL4 updates. That is exactly the same thing that will happen if you are using CentOS-4.
If you install today with 4.0 or 4.1 isos and update via up2date or yum, won't you miss any updates that were rolled into the subsequent base isos and omitted in current updates?
Not if you have and official CentOS [base] and [updates] in your yum configuration.
Base + updates on any Official CentOS tree is always the latest packages required for a full install ... just like the packages in RHN.
