You can get functionality that is very similar to Debian apt-get by
using apt-get for Redhat Linux.

Check out http://apt.freshrpms.net/ for more details.

I have been using this for quite a while now and have been very happy
with the results.

Subject: easiest way to keep a Redhat 9 box




Hi,



  I just installed Redhat 9, and I'm some-what used to using Debian and
its wonderful apt-get command, however I noticed Redhat lacked such a
capability. However, they had the RHN (Redhat Network) option which
costs money.

 

 Is there a third-party piece of software that auto-updates a Redhat
box?
