I had done that, yes. BUT: You mentioning this made me have a look at /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date The http proxy was listed OK, but for some reason the GUI hadn't set the use proxy option to 1. I have no idea how that can happen, I can't imagine it's a bug, it MUST be something I've done. However. With the proxy enabled (correctly) it works. It does not explain why I should need to use my proxy (I've been trying with and without), but if that settles it I'll just throw my hands up and call it a day. Thanks to all who helped.
