[rhn-users] up2date not working

[kassim kasmani]

I tried using 'up2date -u' and here is what I got:

[farisi at localhost farisi]$ up2date -u

Fetching package list for channel: rhel-i386-ws-3...
########################################

Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: rhel-i386-ws-3...

Fetching rpm headers...
########


I just seems to freeze!!
