Hi,

  I just installed Redhat 9, and I'm some-what used to using Debian and its wonderful apt-get command, however I 
noticed Redhat lacked such a capability. However, they had the RHN (Redhat Network) option which costs money.
 
 Is there a third-party piece of software that auto-updates a Redhat box?
You can download a RPM enabled apt-get at http://freshrpms.net and it
works just as on Debian. The repositories are smaller, though.
