Havoc,

Are you talking generically with that last sentence or is this in the
works? i.e. http://fedora.redhat.com/projects/config-tools/ states a
number of tools "that would be useful but do not exist yet". For example
it lists:
"Firewall - configuration tool for IP Tables (something more finegrained
than redhat-config-securitylevel)"
What's the status on this tool and other tools listed there? One tool
that isn't listed that would be useful is a Mail server tool - could
take some of the complexity out of setting up Sendmail/Postfix (esp.
Sendmail). I suppose it's lack of RH developer interest/time?

Regards,
-Matt
