The idea behind paying Red Hat and having the RHN subscription is so that you will use up2date and not apt or yum, as this is the supported method for updating your RHEL system. As for them not responding, I'd take that up with your sales rep... but I'm sure even their sales engineers will tell you, up2date via RHN or RHN Satellite is the supported method for keeping your system updated.
good luck, David McD

I tried asking them, they tell me they'll get back to me and then never respond. We'd love to send some money their way, but it's difficult when you can't get their sales department to answer simple questions. :)
From a quick glance, you need a special RHN subscription:

Either Proxy or Satelite.
That would have been my guess, but it all seems to be tailored to using up2date, so I wasn't sure.
