Fedora vs Redhat

Hi,

can i say technically there is no difference in:

package management (installation/removal/updating)
commands

between redhat and fedora?

in redhat if I am not a official subscriber, I can never do commands like:
yum search/update/install... unless I have the license


how does it look like in fedora?
can I yum search/update/install freely? it will connect to rhn? and then freely download packages and updates
thanks
messi

SYSTEM-CONFIG-KICKSTART(8)				      Kickstart Configurator					SYSTEM-CONFIG-KICKSTART(8)

NAME
system-config-kickstart - graphical interface for creating kickstart files SYNOPSIS
system-config-kickstart [KSFILE] DESCRIPTION
system-config-kickstart provides a simple method of creating a kickstart file that can be used to automate the installation process on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, and derived distributions. If given, the program will take its initial settings from the KSFILE provided on the command line. This allows editing of existing kick- start files. Currently, this program has some serious limitations. For example, it cannot work with LVM nor do advanced RAID and BTRFS configurations. These are supported by kickstart, but the graphical program does not provide a way to set them up nor manipulate them in existing kickstart files. OPTIONS
--help Print out program usage. --generate FILENAME Examine the system and create a kickstart file that more or less matches, writing the output to FILENAME. --display DISPLAY# Specify the X display to use. EXAMPLES
To run the program type: system-config-kickstart REPORTING BUGS
