I have not been using redhat 9 for very long (normally use Debian) and am having problems updating my server with up2date:

Error Message:
Demo service for server 1004505078 limited due to high load
Error Class Code: 51
Error Class Info:
Demo service currently disabled due to high load. If you would like
to see Red Hat's policies on Demo service, or find out how you can
purchase a subscription service and receive priority download access,
please go to http://rhn.redhat.com/preview/index.pxt

Do you guys pay for a redhat update package or are there mirrors around?

Well. you are on a demo account. They do that to demo accounts all the time especially when they release new packages. We do have a paid subscription which gets around that. (which of course expires tommorrow)

Alternatively, download the Rpms and install it manually.

Or install yum, and use it to update the packages. Personally I like it much better then up2date and have been using it for ages now.
