I'm not looking for the RHN feature as this only updates files on your system.  If I'm looking for a new package, I would like to run a apt-get like command.


You can use apt4rpm (http://apt4rpm.sf.net/)

Or you can just mirror all the RPMS from updates can use rpm -F
The last one isn't quite like apt but ity's fairly simple.
