Do recall that up2date lets you identify a proxy
in the configuration process and yum needs you do
set it as an environment variable.

#!/bin/bash
export   http_proxy=http://your-proxy.domain.com:9123
/usr/bin/yum  ${1+"$@"}

The problem with name resolution needs attention too.
Make sure a good nameserver is listed in your resolv.conf.
