Hi, RPMforge maintains several repositories for different distributions. Visit http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/FAQ.php#B and add add the RPM repository you are looking for.
Also, CentOS repositories should be compatible. As they are based on RHEL sources. But they compile the sources, thats creates a question of binary compatibility. As far as I know, CentOS claims to RHEL binary compatible (means CentOS4 binaries are compatible with RHEL4, CentOS5 with RHEL5 and so forth). And to maintain that they don't modify any sources directly. So, you can also use CentOS repositories to install new applications.
