I have 2 machines with RHEL 5.2 and I would like to use CentOS repos. I would like to know if the document "Using CentOS Repositories on RHEL Machines"[1] can be used in CentOS 5.2 without too much modifications.

Thanks

You shouldn't need to bother since RHEL 5 has yum. Just add your repo
definitions into your /etc/yum.repos.d directory.

The only limitation I have been able to see with RHEL's yum is the lack of
the priorities plugin. You can use protectbase as a replacement. If I get a
chance today, maybe I'll try to update that wiki page.

Hi

A basic question, is enough to copy the files in /etc/yum.repos.d/ or is there another better way?

Thanks

Marcelo
