RPM not installing

Greetings,
I've inherited a couple of redhat boxes to my network. I've noticed the
OS needs updating. After reading the RH site, I believe the program
up2date would be the best way of managing these six machine.
I've downloaded the rpm, up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm, to the machine and
attempted to install it. However when attempting to run the application
I'm told it isn't installed. Here is the procedure that I'm using and the
results.
When attempting to install:
altoid: /tmp# rpm -ivh up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm
up2date ##################################################
Check the installation:
altoid: /tmp# rpm -q up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm
package up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm is not installed
Try again using --force:
altoid: /tmp# rpm -ivh --force up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm
up2date ##################################################
Check the installation:
altoid: /tmp# rpm -q up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm
package up2date-1.0.1-1.src.rpm is not installed
I'm getting the same results when trying to install other RPMs on different
machines as well. No errors, no dependencies, just no installation. The
OS's are RH6.1 and 6.2. Any input on why this isn't working, and possible
solutions would be most appreciated.
Anthony
