up2date --channel rhel-i386-ws-3 --showall

I tried installing the RHEL4 up2date rpm, but it conflicts with
rhn-client-tools.

Any ideas on how to access the up2date repo's for RHEL4 and earlier in RHEL5?

eg.  https://rhn.redhat.com
login, select your system, alter channel subsrciptions

from your system
# yum check-update
or
# yum --enablerepo=aaa --disablerepo=bbb list your_package

eg.
# yum check-update
