[ale] Need redhat help

[Jason Vinson]

apt4rpm works pretty well.

That article covers some of the basics of setting up RH 8.0, including a segment on setting up apt4rpm.

HTH,

need to know a few things.

First where might I find hints on how to use the tools surrounding the
rpm distribution?  

For instance, how do I find out where a file or distribution was
installed? e. g. I'd like to edit httpd.conf, where did they put it. 

how do I find out what distribution might contain a specific file? e. g.
I want to install rsync.

How can I find out what packages have been installed? 

Is there a tool like apt-get that will install a package and all of the
packages it depends on?

Thanks for any guidance.  I'm sure there is a faq but I haven't been
able to find it.

Jim.
