Hum, sounds you have a newer (beta) version installed.

 rpm -U --oldpackage up2date-3.1.46-2.i386.rpm up2date-gnome-3.1.46-2.i386.rpm 

this is going backward in the release numbering, and as Alan pointed out
you will loose the new features of Adrian's latest releases, but at least 
connecting to RHN servers should be possbile again. The other solution
is to update only the CERT as someone posted before, but I didn't tested
that myself.
