Author getting all gpg keys

Hello,
I'm running RH AS 3.0 and when I use up2date to update packages, I get
warning message box popups saying that some packages are signed with an
unknown gpg signature. Is there a way to download & install all package
signatures that I need within up2date?
Thanks.

Something must be wrong. I run RHEL 3 ES and use up2date to update
packages. I have _never_ received a popup saying that. I believe you need
only one signature, and that comes in when up2date is installed, or
perhaps when you register with Red Hat for Red Hat Network service.

Well, that depends on what servers you've configured up2date to look at, no?
If you've added some of the Fedora servers, it's possible that one would be
hitting the GPG issue (which is known, BTW).

I realize that the OP is talking about AS3, but the following is for others
as well, or anyone who might have configured their sy stems to check other
sources for updates.

If you're using RedHat 9 or an earlier version of RedHat Linux and you've
been getting GPG errors while trying to run 'yum' or other automated package
management applications to update your system, you need to import an
additional GPG key:
rpm --import http://www.fedora.us/FEDORA-LEGACY-GPG-KEY
If you're on a Fedora Core 1 or 2 system, you may also need an additional
key:
rpm --import http://www.fedora.us/FEDORA-GPG-KEY

Good luck,

Dave
