Thanks Hi Dan, I don't know about one for sendmail, but RH comes with a gui for apache. It is redhat-config-httpd [or possibly service-config-httpd(?) or fedora-config-httpd(?) depending on rh/fedora release]. You can call it as root from the command line or in the KDE menu system settings -> server settings -> http You should be aware that (at least with this particular tool), it will really doctor the httpd config file making manual maintenance a real pain. So if you (or anyone else) will never ever want to manually work on the web daemon configuration, go ahead and use it, but I would recommend you learn to manually configure it (http://httpd.apache.org) instead. You may want to use the tool to get online, but later replace it with traditional configuration file. AFAICR, it only changes /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf I think it's the same for firewall & dns tools (redhat-config-securitylevel & redhat-config-bind-gui), not much of as learning tools. It would be nice to see a frontend that would be as useful learning to see how things work as it is to set up the environment. It seems too many of these utilities impair their use as a learning tool because you are left with either different files or different file formats than are typically in use so you can't use the tools to help you learn the process of implementing and customizing services :( -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
