Install PINE

[bosveld]

I am using RHEL from rimuhosting

My email server is also running on the server -- I want to use PINE to read my email. How do I install PINE?

I did search on google, tried various RPM commands but can't get it right -- many thanks.

I find that dag is a good repository to go for 'extra' RPMs like pine that are not included in your distro. Try the rpm at:
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/pine/

Thanks retep ---

That was very helpful but I have never used rpm.
Since I do it all on my MAIN server -- I don't want to get it wrong or stuff up existing programs.

This is what I THINK I must do, please clarify.

1. Get rpm file on my server.
create temp directory (could it be anywhere?)
use wget command, in this case:
wget http://dag.wieers.com/packages/pine/pine-4.64-1.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm

2. What now?
To install it. Reading through help file
rpm -ihv <the file downloaded above>

Please clarify
Many thanks

wget will download the file OK. Then rpm -Uvfh filename.

Alternatively rpm -Uvfh http://someurl will work as well.
