3. Useful Links:

The following are links that may be useful to individuals learning yum:

• Primary Yum Website: http://www.linux.duke.edu/projects/yum
• Yum HOWTO (latest version): http://www.phy.duke.edu/~rgb/General/yum_HOWTO.php
• Yum Article: http://www.phy.duke.edu/~rgb/General/yum_articicle.php This is a short article on yum, a sort of "getting started".
• Duke University Linux Users Group (DULUG) Red Hat repository mirrors: http://mirror.dulug.duke.edu/pub/yum-repository/redhat This repository collection is yummified and support Red Hat Linux 7.1 to 9. Red Hat Linux is deprecated in favor of Fedora for most users as Red Hat will no longer support these versions as of next year (2004). This is currently the repository the default yum.conf points to, so that yum should work more or less automatically out of the RPM box for most Red Hat users.
