apt-get and Redhat 9


Hi all,

I have a Redhat 9 server and when I use apt-get update and apt-get upgrade it no longer appears to update any software. It will check the server, but returns no updates. I currently use "rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net redhat/9/i386 os updates freshrpms" in my /etc/apt/source.list file. It appears to have ended updating. Is there some other source I could use to update? Thanks

well RH9 is no longer supported, but IIRC you can find legacy updates from the Fedora site that handle RH9. not sure how long those will be kept up to date though.

I use the fedoralegacy.org site for apt updates:

# Fedora Legacy
# rpm http://download.fedoralegacy.org/apt/ redhat/9/i386 os updates legacy-utils

They have already dicontinued some earlier versions of redhat due to lack of interest, but rh 9 is still fine & may be for awhile.
