There's also apt.freshrpms.net for redhat-centric APT repositories. It's _very_ nice. Download the
appropriate rpm for your RH version, install it and it includes a premade apt.sources file
pointing to a server with the packages for that version or RH. Also, at www.freshrpms.net/apt/
there's instructions on setting up your own repository or creating apt-enabled RH 8/9 ISOs!

P.S. I just looked at the url and apparently they've recently added links for the new RedHat
version of Yellow Dog's Updater (yum), which is supposed to be very nice.
