Where did linuxconf & netconf go...???


Can anyone shed some light on why the download version of Mdk 9.2 (FiveStar) lacks linuxconf, netconf, and several other command line utilities...??? Do I need to register the software in order to gain access to those programs...??? Just curious... I scrapped trying Red Hat on a test machine due to a similar problem...

Thanks...

linuxconf is no longer supported in Mdk 9.2 but you may also be missing icons.

Go to MCC and use server configuration. Works OK for a newbie like me!

Thanks...

I am fully aware of all of the GUI-Based utilities and Wizards, but still like the console-based utilities for those times when things don't go as planned... I guess I can just tweak configuration files using a text editor... Guess I better snoop around to see what else is missing... Isn't progress wonderful...
