My fault, I should have left out a space or added a dash:

up2date-nox -u

or

up2date --nox -u

See what going from memory gets you :-)

So you have read the bug report and tried the steps you need to go through
to get up2date to use the proxy?  In this situation I would personally use
yum as it handles the proxy better at this moment in time.  I don't recall
off hand if rhn-applet has the correct code to use the proxy.
