SuSEconfig(8) System Manager's Manual SuSEconfig(8)
NAME
SuSEconfig - Configure system from variables set in /etc/sysconfig/ files
SYNOPSIS
SuSEconfig [-verbose|-quick|-nonewpackage|-force|
-norestarts|-nomodule|-module module]
DESCRIPTION
SuSEconfig configures the system according to the variables that are set in the various "/etc/sysconfig/" files. It uses the subsystem
specific scripts in "/sbin/conf.d/" to configure the various subsystems. For example the variables in "/etc/sysconfig/postfix" are evalu-
ated by the script "/sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.postfix". SuSEconfig acts as a backend for YaST2 and activates the configuration changes made
by YaST2.
These options are available:
-verbose
Show what is happening.
-quick Does not rebuild kernel module dependencies. Is also set by the -module option.
-nonewpackage
Skips configuration modules that have to be run only when a package is newly installed.
-force Not used
-norestarts
Not used
-nomodule
Does not execute the subsystem specific modules.
-module modulename
Runs SuSEconfig with the configuration module for a specific subsystem instead of running all modules.
NOTE
SuSEconfig must be run by the root user.
