Aloha Warren,
  What is a replacement for Linuxconf.  I need to add a module to the kernel of this test Red Hat system.  I found a documnet that tells me exactly how to create a PPP Server for an incomming ppp client.  The issue is that it tells me that I need to add a module to my kernel.  What tool do I need to use?
