Hello. The possibly bug is in /etc/conf.linuxconf when changing hostname to another diferent when RedHat was installed, linuxconf hangs. I verify packet with gnorpm and kpackage and tell me permissions of that conf file where wrong. I have to reinstall RedHat because changing hostname to the previous one didn't work.
I'm not sure I understand what's going on here. Your hostname shouldn't be in /etc/conf.linuxconf at all.
closed, lack of input.
