Corona is correct. Red Hat Linux does not put out "Patches" but rather updates to RPMs. In order to "Patch" you should apply the new RPM to the system.

You must either have a repository set up and properly configured to contain all your RPMs or you must have them accessible to the local system via HTTP or local/network mount.
