You could use Red Carpet from ximian.
http://ximian.com/products/redcarpet/download.html

I have never used rhnetwork personally...  I signed up a machine or two and 
thought it too clunky, I had two machines signed up at once with two 
different IP and host names... no problem.

I use redcarpet and apt-get for rpm, and Synaptic - a gui frontend to apt-get 
for rpm.  There are some other script utilities, autorpm and autoupdate among 
others that can automate the aquisition and upgrading of updates and such for 
you as well.  Sometimes I just do it the old fashioned way.
