Cron - different forum
Hi, you need to set up a cron job to automatically run the yoursite.com/cron.php file that runs all scheduled processes on your site. See http://drupal.org/cron for how to configure it. If you don't have the right access to the server you can try this module: http://drupal.org/project/poormanscron.
BTW: You should really post these questions to the Support / Post Installation forum (http://drupal.org/forum/22) in the future.

RE: Automatically update News Aggregrator
First of all, this posting should not be posted in the "News and announcements" section !
Answer:
You need to set your cron file, cron.php, to run periodically in order to update your RSS feeds automatically.
If you are using a hosting Cpanel, the following will update your site every hour:
Minute Hour Day Month Weekday Command0 * * * * wget -O - -q http://yoursite.com/cron.php
Just replace yoursite.com with your domain name and the correct path to the cron.php file.
Refer to: http://drupal.org/cron for more information.
