Hey Llama- Here's one up your alley.
In COL, they have /etc/modules/default as a file to list modules to be
loaded at startup. Is there such a thing in RH 7.[2-3]? This has been
buggerin' me for a while. Today, someone asked me how to load the
ipchains module be default. I know that it can be loaded from a firewall
script or from rc.local, but it made me wonder yet again just how RedHat
DOES module management in the 7.x series... I've heard that it's all
probed at startup each time (which sounds scarily like plug-n-pray to me),
but I don't know the details. Then I remembered that you maintain a lot
of RH boxen so I thought you might know. Thanks.
Matt
