Hi Joshua.

I found this free online book most helpfull.

http://www.rpm.org/max-rpm-snapshot/

There are other resources found here:

http://www.rpm.org/wiki/Docs#Books

You will need to setup a user account to build RPM packages.

NEVER build packages as root user!!!

If you want to sign those packages then you will need to use 
GPG - Gnu Privacy Guard, which superceeds PGP.

You can also join the RPM user's mailing list for any other 
help you need:

Happy packaging & Kind Regards,

Keith Roberts
