You will need to download the new version of Up2Date.

Go to the following website.
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2003-267.html

Look for Red Hat Linux 9 and download the two files under i386 to the /tmp directory.[list=1][*]up2date-3.1.23.2-1.i386.rpm[*]up2date-gnome-3.1.23.2-1.i386.rpm[/list=1]
Open a terminal and type:

Code:

su -
cd /tmp
rpm -Uvh up2date-3.1.23.2-1.i386.rpm up2date-gnome-3.1.23.2-1.i386.rpm

Once installed, you can delete the files.
