Aha... up2date
It has it's own control hooks.
  ... see the config file /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date

  enableProxy[comment]=Use a HTTP Proxy
  enableProxy=1

  httpProxy[comment]=HTTP proxy in host:port format, e.g. squid.redhat.com:3128
  httpProxy=192.168.0.1

Also see command line options that you can place in the cron command

     up2date  --proxy localpxy.somebox.commercial
