You can also look into Red Carpet from Ximian (http://www.ximian.com).  It
is free and will update the RedHat software.  I don't think it will do
it automatically, but not sure since I don't want that functionality...

You don't need to pay to use RHN.

Just use demo serverice and you take a little short quiz once a month to
keep using it.

Subject: easiest way to keep a Redhat 9 box




Hi,

  I just installed Redhat 9, and I'm some-what used to using Debian and
its wonderful apt-get command, however I noticed Redhat lacked such a
capability. However, they had the RHN (Redhat Network) option which costs
money.

 Is there a third-party piece of software that auto-updates a Redhat box?
