Hi,

And yes, if they are in RPM format, then the best command to install and check will be using the RPM utility itself.

To install
-----------
# rpm -ivh

To check
-----------
# rpm -q

To get complete information
----------------------------
# rpm -q -i

# rpm -ivh /OS_BACKUP/rhl_cd2/RedHat/RPMS/vim-minimal-6.3.046-0.40E.7.x86_64.rpm

Please suggest me from where i can download the dependencies to install this software?

I afraid that your RHEL is 32-bit.
And you're trying to install x86_64 software.

As far as I understand, the simpliest way to use x86_64 software is with x86_64 Linux distro. It means, I'll suggest you to install x86_64 version of RHEL4.

You asked the same question twice, didn't you. See the other thread then.
