Remember, anything that Dag supplies for RHEL4 will work with SL4 (and the
same goes for RHEL3).

Although duplication is found in various repo's, primarily for the smaller
packages this is rarely the case. Also, some repo suppliers do things
differently to others so as an admin, you may prefer one way to another. Just
start using repo's and you'll soon realise what you want/need from each of them.
