About:
Linuxconf is a sophisticated administrative tool. It is both an activator and a configurator, and can manage quite a few system tasks. It has some unique features, like configuration versioning and multiple machine management. It supports multiples languages (French, German, Italian, etc.) and can be administered from ncurses (text), Web, command line, or X (GNOME or wxxt) user interfaces.

You're right. I don't really need linuxconf right now anyway. I'm still waiting for iptables support before I get serious about trying it.

I don't know what's your language, but I am french and I know a possible answer : if your keyboard is no more rightfully configured, you may get a wrong keymap which brokes your password. It would be a little too simple, but try your keys while typing your login.

this problem is fixed in Linuxconf >=1.16
the /etc/conf.linuxconf file was not tagged as a config file in the Solucorp RPM and was renamed to /etc/conf.linuxconf.rpmnew which was confusing Linuxconf.

Totally blew up my RedHat 6.0 after installing! Took over 3 hours to rebuild my linux life.
