大家都知道rhel想要跟新软件都是要注册的，对于平民百姓来说那费用还是有点高的。呵呵，看了网上的资料写的都是杂乱无章的，今天刚好有时间，整理下我的redhat as5.3 的yum配置，希望对大家有所帮助
配置rhel 5 使用CentOS的yum站点升级
删除原来的/etc/yum.conf文件和/etc/yum.repo.d目录
rm -rf /etc/yum.conf
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
rm -rf rhel-debuginfo.repo
vi /etc/yum.conf

到此就ok了 ，是不是很方便！！！，这个是中科大的源，号称每隔小时跟新一次，速度确实蛮快
测试下
yum -y install system-config-date
