[Yum] yum and RH9 license

[jcosta at lendleaserei.com]

Quasi-legal YUM question:

If we use Yum on a production RH 9 server, and point to a 3rd-party
repository, no subscription fees are due to Red Hat, correct?  I know it
doesn't make logical sense that RH would be able to collect a fee for
applying maintenance to a box even though the maintenance doesn't come from
Red Hat;  has anyone checked the wording of the License agreement for Red
Hat 9?

I'm all for tools that do a better job than those you have to pay for... we
just have to make sure it works from a tech and legal standpoint.  Can
anyone shed some light here?
