YUM repository on Ubuntu

I have taken the RHCE lab and need to retake it. One of the cool things you can do with Redhat is have your own repos for updates. Having my own repo would make studying much easier. I am sure this can be done in Ubuntu as well but I was hoping to find someone who possibly has done this. I have the createrepo tool and have generated the .xml files. I am just hoping there some info somewhere on this. Any help would be great. -J

Need help in installing 'Development Tools' using 'yum' in Ubuntu

location: linuxexchange.com - date: July 14, 2015
I'm currently using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS mainly for neuroimaging use. I need to install a program (see: http://dti-tk.sourceforge.net/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=SourceCode.SourceCode) which is requiring me to install 'Development Tools' from CentOS. I was directed to: https://support.eapps.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/438/55/user-guide---installing-the-centos-development-tools-gcc-flex-etc#installing-the-development-tools-using-yum where I followed the instructions on the page. However, I find that when I enter yum groupinstall "development tools" I get: There are no enabled repos. Run "yum repolist all" to see the repos you have. You can enable repos with yum-config-manager --enable And I get repolist: 0 when I run "yum repolist all". When I try to enable repos with the yum-config-manager command, I get 'You must be root to change the yum configuration.' I'm not sure what I should do at this point? Any help would be much appreciated.

CENTOS FROM centos RUN yum install a b c UBUNTU FROM ubuntu RUN apt-get install a b c Users have reported that it might be problems with DNS configuration, others and the configuration has the Google's DNS servers commented out.
