Hi,
In red hat Linux 7.1, Linuxconf utility is very useful but in Red hat Linux 7.3 Linuxconf utility has been removed. Such utilities are:
1) Configuring the Run Level.
2) Cofiguring Shadow Password.
3)Configuring LILO.
4)Configuring Networking.
ETC......
There were many more utilities in Linuxconf, how and where should we use this Linuxconf utility in Red Hat Linux 7.3. Bye.
Manish.

Use the one from 7.1! just find the
associated RPM from the 7.1 distro
you were using and install it, with
only a little configuration it should
perform much the same tasks as it did
before... failing that there is
always the possibility of using a
later linuxconf from another distro
(if you were going to try this I'd
recommend the one from Mandrake) and
configuring it.
As far as I know linuxconf only
really edits scripts, texts and
config files so any version is
unlikely to conflict majorly with any
other.

Well, there is linuxconf for 7.3
Check ftp site on Redhat.com and find
linuxconf-1.25r7-3.rpm or from rpmfind.net
I do have R.H. 7.3 and currently running linuxconf.

Hope this helps you out.
Lintadsl.
