I thought I'd give OpenVZ a try after doing some experimenting with Xen. I was able to install OpenVZ successfully on my CentOS 4.2 test box. As I was reading the documentation about the installation of new packages it mentions the use of vzyum (wrapper for yum). I'm wondering, is it possible for a root user of the VPS to install packages using the default yum package manager instead of using the wrapper? I'm assuming that building new packages from source or running RPM installs within the VPS are fine??
Thanks.
