[ATrpms-users] how use smart on atrpms?

[Paul]

I tried smart cmd from the console but Smart doesn't seem to find any of the updates that 
yum lists for extras or updates (see below)
what config files do I need to check to verify its setup.

also I don't see "--update" listed when I use smart --help or man smart
Thanks
