If I add the RHEL yum repo file to /etc/yum.repos.d on a RHEL 6 Workstation system and do "yum install VirtualBox-3.2", I get this:

Not sure what RHEL6.1 expects but I added the obvious links. If it still does not work then please post the exact error message.

Ok. I lied. After trying to install VirtualBox-4.1.x86_64

warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 98ab5139: NOKEY Retrieving key from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc Importing GPG key 0x98AB5139:

Userid: "Oracle Corporation (VirtualBox archive signing key) <info@…>" From : http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc

Is this ok [y/N]: n

Should I use the debian one?

Exactly. We use the same key for signing all our repositories.
