Hi Al,

I've been using apt-get for Red Hat with no problem. Setting up an 
apt-get-enabled ftp server is a little more fun (=challenging) , but it's 
down easy if you RTFM.

For Mandrake, why go the apt-get way if there's urpmi?

urpmi rocks my (Mandrake) world! (I hope this *really* means "I like urpmi")

BTW, for the curious and bi(tri)-lingual, I wrote an article in Spanish on 
enabling apt-get for your Red Hat:

And then it got translated into Catalan :

Salut,
