I know, I was being something of a smartass. Sorry if that was not clear.

I am interested in trying the latest, community versions of Samba-416 
and Gluster-10 on RHEL. That was why I was asking the question. Sure, I 
can absolutely use the Red Hat Gluster Storage software from the 
official repos, but I am interested in playing with the latest and 
greatest community bits... but on RHEL. I *can* use CentOS, but I prefer 
to use genuine RHEL. I was wondering if there was a "right" way of doing 
so. I am playing with the CentOS Gluster-10 and Samba-416 repos just to 
learn. It looks like they work just fine once I enabled EPEL and those 
CentOS repos.

I was more checking to see if there were any problems just enabling the 
CentOS Storage SIG repos on RHEL. So far, it does not appear that there 
are problems. So far, it seems to be working.

Thanks for all the responses. I appreciate them.

Thomas
