RE: apt-get install
where did you get the packages. Last time I installed apt-rpm from freshrpms.net, it went off without a hitch. A quick search on these files at rpmfind.net gives the package The RPM package management system.RedHat-7.3 for i386 rpm-4.0.4-7x.18.i386.rpm Go grab that one.

Re: apt-get install
Where does redhat keep all its updates? If I want to have a machine to keep current updates where does a person find them??

Do you have an good suggestions on how I could yank all those updates down a some odd ball hours? *** wget -r ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/7.2/ *** I am assuming some type of script running in cron?
