Ive had problems with linuxconf also. I NO LONGER use it. I installed rhl
6.1, and was surprised to see that by default
or via linuxconf's nice little re-writing of files, i had an OPEN RELAY for
a mail server. that was my last straw with
linuxconf, no more.

Anyone else have this problem? Im not sure, but i THINK linuxconf makes your
mail server an open relay. Not sure, comments welcome please.

Jim.

I've seen that happen when linuxconf isn't able to correctly parse a
config file.  I recommend:

strace linuxconf 2>/tmp/linuxconf.strace

After linuxconf crashed, there will be a complete stack trace in
/tmp/linuxconf.strace.  You can examine that file to find out what it
was doing when it crashed.  Try "grep open /tmp/linuxconf.strace".  The
last file opened is _probably_ the culprit.
