128 Part II . Running the Show Red Hat Config Tools A set of graphical tools that comes with Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems can be launched from the Applications and Desktop menus (under the System Tools and System Settings submenus) or the command line. Most of the Red Hat tools that launch from the command line begin with the system-config string (such as system-config-network). In Fedora Core 1 and previous versions of Red Hat Linux, the GUI administrations tools all began with redhat-, such as redhat-config-network and redhatlogviewer. Starting with Fedora Core 2, those names have all changed tosystem-, resulting in names like system-config-network and system-logviewer. These administrative tasks require root permission; if you are logged in as a regular user, you must enter the root password before the GUI application s window opens. After you ve entered that password, most of the system configuration tools will open without requiring you to retype the password during this login session. Look for a keys icon in the lower-right corner of the panel, indicating that you have root authorization. Click the keys to open a pop-up window that enables you to remove authorization. Otherwise, authorization goes away when you close the GUI window. The following list describes many of the GUI-based windows you can use to administer your Fedora or Red Hat Linux system. Start these windows from the System Settings or System Tools submenus on your Applications and Desktop menus: . Server Settings Access the following server configuration windows: Domain Name System Create and configure zones if your computer is acting as a DNS server. HTTP Configure your computer as an Apache Web server. NFS Set up directories from your system to be shared with other computers on your network using the NFS service. Samba Configure Windows (SMB) file sharing. (To configure other Samba features, you can use the SWAT window.) Services Display and change which services are running on your Fedora system at different run levels from this Service Configuration window (see Figure 4-2). . Add/Remove Applications Manage software packages in the Fedora distribution. . Authentication Change how users are authenticated on your system. Usually, Shadow Passwords and MD5 Passwords are selected. However, if your network supports LDAP, Kerberos, SMB, NIS, or Hesiod authentication, you can select to use any of those authentication types. Note
