install apt-get on linux Red Hat server

Question

I m setting up a Linux Red Hat web server  apt-get isn t installed  but yum is  However  yum cannot find the apt package   When I run apt-get  I get a message from the shell saying that the command apt-get couldn t be found  When I try yum install apt or yum install apt-get I get a message saying yum couldn t find the package and there was nothing to do  I suspect that it s probably a case of editing a sources list  as with apt  to add the source that apt is available from  but I a  don t know where this source list would be  and b  don t know what source would provide apt     If anyone could enlighten me  it would be greatly appreciated

If you have a Red Hat server use yum  apt-get is only for Debian  Ubuntu and some other related linux   Why would you want to use apt-get anyway   It seems like you know what yum is

I think you re running into problems because RedHat uses RPM for managing packages  Debian based systems use DEBs  which are managed with tools like apt
