If you have a fresh RH5.1 install, you still need to download the
updates
for 5.1, and install them using:

# rpm -Uvh *.rpm

Get updates from a mirror of RedHat, since
the Redhat site is always slow and sometimes saturated.
See http://www.redhat.com/mirrors.html for a list of mirror sites.

On my favorite mirror sites, the 5.1 update rpms are in
pub/Linux/redhat/updates.redhat.com/5.1/i386/

Your site may be organized a bit differently.
Anyway, there are about 80 megabytes of updates for 5.1,
and you should install the updates for all the packages you
use.
