Description of problem:
up2date is bad enough as it is. It took hourd just to get the junk to
work.
It should be able to bypass certs and just update.
Maybe someday RH will get closer to being as clean as Mac OS X, but it
sure looks like it's years off if ever!

After all the effort to get it to work, the following error occured
when it was updatin the kernel.


There was a fatal error communicating with the server.  The message was:
