Hello,

Its been a while since I used a redhat system and I am wondering what is the admin tool that can be run from command line to admin the network or various other services? I thought it was linuxconf, but, since that tool is old, I guess there is something else now. There is no X server on this machine and the UI that I am thinking of is a tab driven red & blue interface. Sorry if the details are a bit lacking.

Thanks for your help.

James

Try Webmin. It is not part of a default install but will suit you well.

Try running: yum search system-config

The system-config-* commands provide both gui and text
based interfaces. If there are two versions of a package,
such as system-config-network and system-config-network-tui,
choose the tui (text user interface) version.

Try the system-config scripts. Such as system-config-network They'll run
in a GUI if you have a GUI loaded, or in an ncurses based interface if you
don't.

Or... Completely ignore webmin, cpanel, and other junk like that.

I don't know of any ncurses (the red and blue tab driven interface)
interface like you're talking about. I just use chkconfig.

I'm with Rob on this one, the web based admin tools are more headache than
they are worth. Just use the system-config-* utilities.

You can also use the "setup" command to do basic configuration of
network, firewall, authentication, timezone and a few other things. It's
not fancy though and you can't configure all services.
