Yes, both these distros are directly derived from RHEL. Part of their mission
statements are to remain as close as possible to RHEL.
If you install these you will get a system that is basically RHEL, without the
cost (and thus the 'official' support). I use Scientific Linux systems at
work (a lab working with CERN, one of the homes of SL...) and it works very
well I think.
