What is REEL 5?
Is it a typo for RHEL 5? If so you could go to the http://rpm.pbone.net web site. You can download and install the software packages there. Click on advanced search and click on the RHEL 5 button. Then you will be searching only for RHEL 5 rpm packages. While on this site, once a package is selected, you can right click on the link to the package and copy the url. It is probably a repository that you can use as an installation source. |
hi pradeep,
If you want to extract rpm's through online, you should have repository. As you are using RHEL5 it is better to go with rpmforge repo which you can get from [HTML]http://www.rpmforge.net[/HTML] install the RHEL5 rpm from there. Post me your result again. |
thanks for the repository but my prob is i'm unable to configure yum using this repository
pls help me to configure it |
