RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Zbysek MRAZ 2010-08-13 14:32:27 UTC
1, in section 2.5.2.5. Saving the Settings

The selected options are also written to the /etc/sysconfig/system-config-securitylevel file so that the settings can be restored the next time the application is started. Do not edit this file by hand.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-08-13 14:38:06 UTC
This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker
issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.

** If you would still like this issue considered for the current
release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on
your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. **

Comment 2 Scott Radvan 2010-08-19 00:00:53 UTC
The text shows '/etc/sysconfig/system-config-firewall' as the file that the config is written to. There is no system-config-securitylevel tool in this release, or a file that I can see.

Can you please elaborate on what the problem is here?

Comment 3 Zbysek MRAZ 2010-08-19 09:56:26 UTC
Yes, the /etc/sysconfig/system-config-firewall is correct.

 The file i mentioned ( /etc/sysconfig/system-config-securitylevel ) exists and is used in RHEL5 for same purpose but not in RHEL6.

If the correct file was there also before I'm not sure where I was looking :-/ So this can be closed.
