Your problem is that you keep using the -l (list available updates) 
option.

Once you've used -l, once, to get a list of available packages, you need 
to then issue the up2date command like so:

up2date package1 package2 package3

You can list all the packages you want to intall right on one command 
line.

Or, if you don't want to do all that typing, use the GUI Red Hat Network 
tool from KDE/Gnome.
