Just try running up2date --configure.  Up2date does not use rhn in
Fedora, it automatically uses yum repositories and sets up two channels
called "fedora-core-1" and "updates-released."

If you have difficulty, I suggest you uninstall your current up2date and
up2date-gnome and install the latest version which is 4-1.16-1 and then
run up2date --configure.  Should work after that.  There are not yet any
updates for a Fedora Core 1 system.
