- bugs:
-
- /var/lib/zoneinfo is a real file instead of a link
-
-
- general:
-
- Add a menu to show what is still not configured. This alone
- may save the day of the administrator (user). It is expected
- that linuxconf will grow and grow, one day allowing dynamic
- linkage with addon module. Its cute menu scheme will become
- a large network where new user may get lost.
-
- Sequential install mode.
-
- Add a menu where the user is guided from menu to menu
- to do a basic configuration. This menu will be always
- available. There must be a way to force askrunlevel into
- that menu a boot time. Call this an unconfigure option
- which erase nothing but force the user to inspect/correct
- the most important configuration option.

-
- dnsconf:
-
-
- netconf:
-
-
- NIS server
-
- diald / ppp /slip setup
-
- inetd.conf and services management
-
- hosts.allow and friends
-
- lpconf:
-
- Still to do
-
- userconf:
-
- crontab setup
- Some special user are not shown
- Can't edit the password of special users. The password setting
- should be move straight in the edit field of each user instead
- or requiring a special menu for it. Two new fields should be added
- and a check box will let you decided if you indeed want to
- change the password.
- privileges management.
-
- admin-fs:
-
- Turning all this into a virtual file system :-)
-
-
- inittab:
-
- Management of getty and mgetty
-
- askrunlevel:
-
- Configuration of /etc/inittab (especially for common
- task like activating a modem)
-
- /sbin/init should be modified to support run sets where
- many runlevel may be active at one. I guess it is a pretty
- easy modification. It would make runlevel so much more useful
-
- For exemple:
-
- runlevel 1: ppp services
- runlevel 2: modem services
- runlevel 3: basic console getty
- runlevel 4: Extra console
-
- So full multiuser would be 1+2+3+4+5+6
-
- Well, just an idea
-
- fsconf:
-
- swap setup
-
- uucp:
-
- Manage the crontab
- Interactive test mode
- Better report than what is usually available with uucp.
- -Report can be sent by email every once in a while
- and also saved into some log for later perusal
-
- xconf:
-
- xdm management of xterminal
-
