Hi, Red Hat wanted to offer the same tools for Gnome & KDE and also similar tools for command line, so they have packaged the "redhat-config-.." utilities (they are what you see in the "start-here->System Settings" but you can also start them from a terminal. The nice thing is that If you want to use a tool for those things (hmm), you will have the same utilities in KDE or Gnome (other de's?) and they all are very similar in look and feel (this is basiclly the idea behind Bluecurve Desktop). I think the printtool is probably the only one that is a great value. You should be careful relying on tools for many of these tasks as there are portential issues with them such as the Apache config tool will squash your httpd.conf file to bits removing a lot of good comments etc (off topic but swat for samba does this as well). I think this is all of them: redhat-config-bind redhat-config-date redhat-config-httpd redhat-config-keyboard redhat-config-kickstart redhat-config-language redhat-config-mouse redhat-config-network redhat-config-nfs redhat-config-packages redhat-config-printer-gui redhat-config-printer redhat-config-proc redhat-config-rootpassword redhat-config-securitylevel redhat-config-services redhat-config-soundcard redhat-config-users redhat-config-xfree86 -- Pete Nesbitt, RHCE -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
