98 times out of 100 when you are having a registration problem with up2date it has to do with the experation of the built in keys (expired in August of 2003) that came with older versions of Red Hat (such as RH9). For full details on this problem ans how to resolve it take a look at this article from 'Red Hat Network'

Happy hunting!
