Hi David,

Linuxconf didn't get replaced by a single program.  Rather, its 
been replaced by a suite of programs that accomplish the same 
functions and use names such as:

  redhat-config-users
  redhat-config-date
  redhat-config-time
  redhat-config-printer-gui
  etc...

You can access these programs by either typing their names on 
the command line or by using the Gnome or KDE "start" buttons 
and following the menus such as:

  "Start button" --> System --> big list of config/setup programs

hth,
Ed
