     5== Core Operating System Repositories for PU_IAS 2, 2WS & 2cluster ==
     6
     7The core operating system repositories are the same as directories holding the installation image.  All of these repositories are always up-to-date - all rpm updates get integrated into installation images which is why it is used as the default repository for yum updates and there is no need for a separate update repository.

     21== Core Operating System Updates For  PU_IAS 2/2WS/2cluster ==
     22
     23The core operating system updates - as rebuilt locally from Red Hat's free sources (in no way supported by Red Hat!) - are located in:
     24
     25http://www.elders.princeton.edu/data/other/PU_IAS/local/updates/2/en/os
     26
     27Here you can find all the current and old updates.  There is no need to use this repository for regular updating as all the updates are integrated into core operating system repositories.
     28 
     29== Addons for PU_IAS 2WS ==
     30
     31The addons repository contains rpms not shipped with core Red Hat or rpms replacing original rpms (as rebuilt from sources shipped by the Red Hat).  Some examples of rpms located in this repository include xine (multimedia), firefox and thunderbird (not included in RHEL 4) and others.
     32PU_IAS 2WS is the result of merging the core PU_IAS 2 installation image together with PU_IAS 2WS addons.  In other words there is no need to add this repository if you are using 2WS.  If you add this repository to PU_IAS 2 installation you will effectively make it PU_IAS 2WS installation.
     33The addons repository is located at:
     34
     35http://www.elders.princeton.edu/data/other/PU_IAS/local/addons/2/
     36
     37We do not recommend using this repository directly but instead either install PU_IAS 2WS or else upgrade PU_IAS-release by installing:
     38|| 32 bit (i386) installation:  || rpm -Uhv  http://www.elders.princeton.edu/data/other/PU_IAS/local/addons/2/i386/PU_IAS-release-2WS-3.2.i386.rpm ||
     39|| 64 bit (x86_64/ia32e) installation: || rpm -Uhv http://www.elders.princeton.edu/data/other/PU_IAS/local/addons/2/x86_64/PU_IAS-release-2WS-3.2.x86_64.rpm ||
     40 
     41== Cluster Suite For 2/2WS ==
     42
     43Cluster suite repository for 2/2WS contains the rebuild of Red Hat's RHCS repository - Red Hat Cluster Suite - for RHEL 4. This local rebuild is in no way supported by Red Hat. The repository is located at (the first is for the originally released RPMS and the second is for its updates):

     80Unsupported Software Repository for 2/2WS
     81}}}
     82
     83The unsupported repository for 2/2WS contains various rpms that we have found useful but for which we cannot pledge any long term support.  We may not be able to update them with new versions or even provide security updates in past versions - i.e. we might ask you to upgrade to the latest PU_IAS distribution version instead of updating software in this repository and use the latest's unsupported repository.
     84You still might find rpms in this repository useful, e.g. you can find denyhosts which can help you with ssh scans.  The repository is located at:
