I tend to build RPMs, packages and/or spec files for recent versions of various linux packages for my preferred operating systems (CentOS, Ubuntu, Gentoo, and OS-X). The first package inside is packaged for CentOS 5, but the RPMs should work on any RHEL-compatible linux.
My repository can be found at
Or add my source to your RHEL-compatible Linux with the following command in your terminal…
And then you can install zabbix agent, zabbix server, zabbix get, or zabbix proxy with…
sudo yum install zabbix-agent
sudo yum install zabbix-server
sudo yum install zabbix-get
sudo yum install zabbix-proxy
If it fails to install, you might need to clean the metadata with the following command and try again…
sudo yum clean metadata
Warning: I of course take no responsibility for the integrity of the packages. I’m simply providing them for myself and anyone else who needs similar packages as myself, where possible I also provide full spec/make/build files so you can go build the packages yourself if you don’t trust me.
On a final note… I will be adding packages on a as-needed basis, but I plan to keep packages relatively up-to-date. So when a new version of something comes out, expect to see the newest version in here pretty quickly.
Merry Christmas, and Enjoy!
