What package am I missing in FC6 that I don't have Server Settings in the gnome menu (System -> Administration -> Server Settings) ?

system-config-services
'tis both the name of the program you run, and the package.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
I have that one, but system-config-services is essentially a frontend for chkconfig (sort of). I'm talking about the gui where you configure NFS, HTTP and other services. The one that is in the gnome editor (alacarte) but you can't enable it.

Do you mean /usr/bin/system-config-services ?

I know exactly what you are referring to, but I cannot find it either. It had all of those services and a bunch more to configure in one gui. It seems to be gone and I used it only a month or so ago.

I still cannot find it and I have looked. It looked like a promising front-end to configuring the core services of a Linux server box, but I guess it was not included again in whatever package originally contained it. Sorry chum, it doesn't look like it's there in the menus, although unless it was removed, may still be in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin. I don't know it's name though. Sorry, Ric

I figured it out. You actually have to install some server config tool such as e.g. system-config-nfs (which I wanted). Then, you will have System -> Administration -> Server Settings with whatever server config tools you have. Kinda makes sense. That's why I don't trust guis, because if something goes wrong you have to dig under the hood.

consolehelper is just a wrapper that prompts for the root password in order to run these config utilities with root permissions. It then passes on to the program nome by which it was called (hence the symlinks).
Try 'yum list system-config-*' to see what is available.

That's why I don't trust guis, because if something goes wrong you have to dig under the hood.
The gear icon in System -> Administration is system-config-services. It used to be in a submenu called Server, but if that's the only entry, the submenu is disabled. You can force-enable the sub-menu by right-clicking on the menu bar around the menu and selecting Edit Menus. Or, as you discovered, if you actually have a syetem-config utility for a server app, the submenu will be automatically enabled. But you have to install the system-config utility for each service you want. A complete list of system-config-* packages is:
$ sudo yum search system-config | grep core system-config-printer.i386 0.7.32-1 core system-config-kickstart.noarch 2.6.13-1 core system-config-printer-libs.i386 0.7.32-1 core system-config-services.noarch 0.9.1-1.fc6 core system-config-lvm.noarch 1.0.18-1.2.FC6 core system-config-users.noarch 1.2.46-1.fc6 core system-config-samba.noarch 1.2.35-1.1 core system-config-date.noarch 1.8.7-1 core system-config-securitylevel-tui.i386 1.6.27-1 core system-config-soundcard.noarch 2.0.3-2.fc6 core system-config-netboot.noarch 0.1.41-1.FC6 core system-config-bind.noarch 4.0.1-2.fc6 core system-config-language.noarch 1.1.11-2 core system-config-nfs.noarch 1.3.19-1.1 core system-config-display.noarch 1.0.45-1 core system-config-httpd.noarch 5:1.3.3-1.1.1 core system-config-network-tui.noarch 1.3.95-1 core system-config-securitylevel.i386 1.6.27-1 core system-config-cluster.noarch 1.0.29-1.0 core system-config-boot.i386 0.2.12-1 core system-config-keyboard.noarch 1.2.10-2 core system-config-rootpassword.noarch 1.1.9-1 core system-config-network.noarch 1.3.95-1 core
Of course, not all of these make entries in the submenu.
HTH.

Well, I'm not completely nuts. Not completely. And the other guy saw it too. That makes two of us. It was some kinda gui which had a bunch of gui menu boxes in it, like Samba, Named, Printer (I think), Apache, and a couple more, including network (which pulled up the usual network gui) and they were all in one place at once in one box. Nifty. A central server setup GUI.
So, now it appears to be gone and I used the darned thing only a month or two ago when I was blagging about the network going down. That turned out to be the nameserver I tie into to going up and down... (the bastards)
Ok Rahul, I know you're out there. Come out from the closet you're hiding in and tell us where it went? I know you know. :) Tell us nicely what you did with it, and we'll forgive you.

Yes, and I was the only guy using KDE too. <chuckles> The young kids used emacs for God's sakes. The little hackers. <chuckles> I loved everyone of them, but old Ric used what he used from his comfort zone.

I think you're thinking of system-config-control - it did exist for awhile, and then dropped out of the repos. I have an old version on this box, but it no longer opens the display.

It was some kinda gui which had a bunch of gui menu boxes in it, like Samba, Named, Printer (I think), Apache, and a couple more, including network (which pulled up the usual network gui) and they were all in one place at once in one box. Nifty. A central server setup GUI.
So, now it appears to be gone and I used the darned thing only a month or two ago when I was blagging about the network going down. That turned out to be the nameserver I tie into to going up and down... (the bastards)
Ok Rahul, I know you're out there. Come out from the closet you're hiding in and tell us where it went? I know you know. :) Tell us nicely what you did with it, and we'll forgive you.

And yes, this was a fresh install of FC6. I am not nuts, not completely. Ric

Just run: yum install system-config-*
and then you will see System -> Administration -> Server Settings

Actually, one correction. I wrote there that you could turn the Server Settings menu entry on in Edit Menus. Apparently, you can't. But if you install a system-config-* package whose menu entry belongs in that submenu, then the Server Settings menu entry will appear and the system-config-services menu item will move to the submenu.

Maybe you guys are talking about system-config-control? The tarball is in http://www.indianoss.org/modules/wfdownloads/viewcat.php?cid=10 and you can find rpms in rpmfind.net. Since it was done a colleague of mine Ankit (CC'ed) who is the Gujarati language maintainer aka translator for Fedora, not a programmer and it is not maintained now but should work fine still. It was imported and available in Fedora Extras for a while and got pushed out in a mass rebuild a while back due to lack of maintainers.
Since folks here seem to be interested, I have added it to the wishlist

I aklso don't know what its name is. It is not system-config-services, however, if you run yum install system-config* the gui will appear under System-> Administration->Server Settings

Oh, right. Now I recall later RHL or early FC releases had a "Start Here" icon on the desktop. Opening it opened a window with the system-config-* menu entries. There was a corresponding menu entry that would open the same window.
I guess Rahul has explained where it went and what its possible future is.
Apparently, I'm not the only one who misunderstood what you were looking for, though.

Actually, Matthew, you're still not getting the right item. I have it right here on my desktop, recommended to me by Rahul many months ago. It's a single click menu-item, "System Control Center" it's called in the version I've got. It does just what Ric has been describing - it doesn't open a window with menu entries. It opens a GUI with icons and tabs; each tab window has a subset of buttons with icons and text for each of the system-config utilities you have installed. I thought it was broken on this box but it turns out it's not - I have it open here as I'm typing. The seven tabs are labelled 'Software' 'Hardware' 'System' 'Network' 'Server' 'Securities and Users' and 'Misc' - there are a total of 31 buttons on the various tab pages corresponding to the system-config and some other utilities installed on my system - clicking on a button opens a separate GUI corresponding to the function you selected.

It's optional to install GUI control panels. You can populate that menu with several items, or have none, the choice is yours. You could add to it in several places (packages for X, gnome, and system adminstration).

Had the same thing in FC5; only one sudo required for all; had a four leaf clover icon kindda; really liked it when working on admin, set ups, and configs. Went looking for it FC6 but it wasn't there.

you a
bunch of icons in a Nautilus window.
Well, I'm not completely nuts. Not completely. And the other guy saw
it
too. That makes two of us. It was some kinda gui which had a bunch
of
gui menu boxes in it, like Samba, Named, Printer (I think), Apache,
and
a couple more, including network (which pulled up the usual network
gui)
and they were all in one place at once in one box. Nifty. A central server setup GUI.
So, now it appears to be gone and I used the darned thing only a
month
or two ago when I was blagging about the network going down. That
turned
out to be the nameserver I tie into to going up and down... (the bastards)
Ok Rahul, I know you're out there. Come out from the closet you're hiding in and tell us where it went? I know you know. :) Tell us
nicely
what you did with it, and we'll forgive you.
"Be ye reconciled." is good.
And yes, this was a fresh install of FC6. I am not nuts, not
completely.

Maybe you guys are talking about system-config-control? The tarball is in http://www.indianoss.org/modules/wfdownloads/viewcat.php?cid=10 and you can find rpms in rpmfind.net. Since it was done a colleague of mine Ankit (CC'ed) who is the Gujarati language maintainer aka translator for Fedora, not a programmer and it is not maintained now but should work fine still. It was imported and available in Fedora Extras for a while and got pushed out in a mass rebuild a while back due to lack of maintainers.
Since folks here seem to be interested, I have added it to the wishlist

I guess I am crazy but on my FC6 machine I have an option: System->Administration-> Server Settings which allows you to configure NFS, HTTP, Samba ,etc servers as well as do what chkconfig can do in a sub menu servers.
That is what I understood the OP wanted to have under FC6 and it is there. So I am a little confused by Rahul's statements. -- ======================================================================= One difference between a man and a machine is that a machine is quiet when well oiled. ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@sbcglobal.net

Thank you! I knew I was not nuts, not completely. It was there, then it was gone, for me. It will be interesting if after updates it disappears on you too. Not that it's anything major, just an interesting happenstance. Ric

yeah, you are ;-)

The OP asked about: "...missing in FC6 that I don't have Server Settings in the gnome menu (System -> Administration -> Server Settings)"
But then, you asked about: "....I know exactly what you are referring to, but I cannot find it either. It had all of those services and a bunch more to configure in one gui."
Which is when Rahul and I brought up the system-config-control program that packages many different configuration packages into one tabbed GUI window...
And you replied: "Thank you Rahul and thank you Claude. <sobs uncontrollably> I said I wasn't crazy! Not completely! Oh yeah, "WOOT! Der it is! WOOT! Der it is!"
But now you're saying Aaron's response is: (see top quote)
Now, is it a separate GUI window you're looking for, or the Server Settings item that appears in both Gnome and KDE menus? By the way, on my KDE box, the menu item is still there, and I'm fully patched up to date.
Comeon you coot, which is it - you sure you're not a cajun from Louisiana ;-)
Of course, the irony here is that Aaron correctly answered the original posters question - many of the rest of us got diverted by someone...

Now I'M confused! <cackles> But that wasn't hard to do was it? I know I had that app, and got it back only when Rahul gave the link to it to dnload back into my system. At that point, upon opening it I cried "Woot! Der it is!" You had to be here.
Nope no cajun in me. They're meaner than snakes towards Texans and vehicles sporting Texas tags.. I had to go to Tibbydoh or howeverinthehell they spell it, from New Orleans. Thought I was getting lost, stopped at a gas station where some old coot told me to back back the way I came, that I missed the turnoff. I wound up going almost back into New Orleans when I saw the Huey Long bridge. Turned back around, headed back east and when I passed that Gas Station the Old Coot was slapping his knees, hoping around, waving and giving me the finger. Old Bastid. I hope he sprained his hernia. Besides, I eat Miracle Whip, the definitive sandwich spread of a proper Texan. They eat Mayonnaise in Louisiana and suck the brains out of crawfish. I mean, damn! That whole push is infected with MadCraw disease. I do have ta give them credit for the Oyster Loaf though, while they don't know crabcakes from nothing putting green pepper in 'em. <shudders> Or BBQ. :)
I >DID< add <OT> to the Subject line. :P Ric

OK - so you are referring to the stand-alone GUI-based application -
The OP and Aaron are referring to an item in the menu accessed from the panel - you click on some items in the menu and it opens a sub-menu, right? That's what they are referring to -
As for coon-a_s that's my humor - remember, I'm half French. BTW, I lived in Houston for 15 years - I'm still in recovery ;-)

I lived in the Nassau Bay area in League City, just across the county line in Galveston County. I used to get my shrimp from the Vietnamese Shrimp boats just down the road in Seabrook for $15-$18 a 1/2 bushel basket, heads-on. Yum! We had so many shrimp that our cats and dogs got full. :)

This may be a way-too-simple thing (and after all of this time, you guys have probably forgotten you ever discussed this <g>), but... I'm getting a "Package system-config-control-1.0-4.noarch.rpm is not signed" error. Do I need to import the key first, or is there any way to get around that? A search of the indianoss.org site didn't fess one up.

If you are installing using yum, try using rpm. RPM would show a warning but install the package anyway.

Thanks, Rahul. I'll give that a try.
