    linux distributions.</a></h2>
    <br>
    
    <p><strong>Do not</strong> use the packages in the native repositories. They are
    frequently out of date. That means you'll be missing stability and
    security fixes.
    </p>
    
    <p>
    You'll need to set up our package repository before you can fetch
    Tor.  Assuming yum, in /etc/yum.repos.d/, create a file called
    torproject.repo.  Edit this file with the following information:
<pre>[tor-experimental]
name=Tor experimental repo
enabled=1
baseurl=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/el/6/$basearch/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-torproject.org.asc

[tor-experimental-source]
name=Tor experimental source repo
enabled=1
autorefresh=0
baseurl=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/el/6/SRPMS
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-torproject.org.asc</pre>
    
    If you wish to track the stable releases of Tor, you should substitute
    DISTRIBUTION with one of the following: centos4, centos5, fc13,
    fc14, fc15, suse</p>
    
    <p>To track experimental releases, substitute DISTRIBUTION with one of these:
    centos4-experimental, centos5-experimental, fc13-experimental,
    fc14-experimental, suse-experimental</p>

<p>
    Then install Tor by running:
    </p>
<pre>yum install tor</pre>
    
    <p>
    Now Tor is installed and running. Move on to <a href="<page
    docs/tor-doc-unix>#using">step two</a> of the "Tor on Linux/Unix"
    instructions.
    </p>
    
    <p style="font-size: small">
    The DNS name <code>deb.torproject.org</code> is actually a set of independent
    servers in a DNS round-robin configuration.  If for some reason you cannot
    use it, you might be able to access one of the individual servers
    instead.  Try
    <code>deb-master.torproject.org</code>,
    <code>mirror.netcologne.de</code> or
    <code>tor.mirror.youam.de</code>.
