I realized it was stairing me in the face when
I was running X. There under tools I think it
was I finally realized that package manager
might just be what I was looking for... Indeed
it did the job. I will try redhat-config next
time and see how it compares.

If you mean linuxconf, it is no longer included. Open a konsole window,
type
redhat-config and hit tab twice. There should be a number of config
tools. If not install them from the CD. There are also buried in the
menu somewhere, but I just use the command line.
