Both works there. Looking at the source code rhn_register is just symlink to up2date. And it has been this way even in RHEL3. Any objection to wipe out that text in parenthesis: (or up2date --register on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 or later) ? The rhn_register was RHEL 2.1 thing. Then the functionality was moved to up2date --register for RHEL 3 and 4. Then up2date was removed in RHEL 5 and rhn_register was reintroduced.
