Description Masahiro Ito 2010-07-14 09:39:56 UTC

Description of problem:

Can you list up new system configurations in RHEL 6 and add the statements?

As far as I found, several configuration has changed:

 * /etc/inittab -> /etc/init/*.conf

 * "dateext" is added as default in /etc/logrotate.conf.
   This might impact user's log management.

I think that information will encourage users and developers to migrate from older RHELs to RHEL 6.

Don't forget that the listed items are just what I've found. If you know other changes that can impact users, please add them as well.
