Basic Cent0S

I don't use RHEL much but at times I will have to manage them.

The dnf command, short for Dandified Yum, is a package manager for RPM-based distributions like Fedora, RHEL, and CentOS. It works as a powerful utility for managing packages, allowing you to easily install, update, remove, and manage software. It’s particularly important because it resolves dependencies automatically, ensuring that the software you install works seamlessly with existing components. Commonly used parameters

$ dnf install [package]
$ dnf update
$ dnf remove [package]
$ dnf list installed
$ dnf search [term]
$ dnf info [package]
