i think i've found the fix. the problem can be solved by upgrade
up2date the the newest version--up2date-gnome-2.7.11-7.x.1.
since the old up2date won't work, you can't simply do "up2date -u up2date",
you have to download the new up2date rpm and upgrade it by hand.
after you install the new up2date, it should work just fine.

The 404 error message a temporary server error. It should be fixed now.
