the docs at http://www.centos.org/docs/4/ should all work fine, and with
the right repo setup in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources  up2date should also
work, you need a line at the end that goes like this :

yum centos4-csgfs http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/csgfs/$ARCH/

also, please dont top post - and specially not if you expect a response
from someone. you'll find a large number of people here in this list (
and on most such lists ) tend to ignore top posted emails.
