CentOS how to use yum to add EPEL source, I believe that many inexperienced people do not know what to do, so this article summarizes the causes of the problem and solutions, through this article I hope you can solve this problem.

There is an EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) under the Redhat Fedora project. EPEL is RHEL's Fedora software repository. Add it and you can get a lot of free software packages that support RHEL/CentOS. For example, nginx, openvpn, etc., which are popular now, can easily install updates.

EPEL (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) is a project created by the Fedora community to provide high-quality software packages for RHEL and derivative distributions such as CentOS and Scientific Linux. Installed with EPEL, just like on Fedora, you can install software at will through yum install package-name.

Installing EPEL is very simple:

The code is as follows:

* RHEL 4 (centos 4):

Rpm-Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/4/i386/epel-release-4-9.noarch.rpm

* RHEL 5 (centos 5):

Rpm-Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm

Once installed, you can use yum to install the software, such as Nagios:

The code is as follows:

Yum install nagios
