Hi,
i think you probably mean some gui one?

system-config-firewall
system-config-selinux
system-config-users

basically, search for those istalled administration tools like:
yum list all | grep -i system-config

cheers,

Anything would be useful. I am just starting out in Linux security, and any tools, guides which make things easier would be great. This is one of the reasons I'm looking at RHEL/SL.

Actually, tools which help me "get my feet in the door" for security would be especially welcome, as I'm just starting out.

Get to grips with SELinux, that should keep you busy for a while. -

Thanks, is there anything in that doc that pertains specifically to RHEL/SL?

Doesn't it cost more per hour if you imitate the voice of Anthony Hopkins? http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b390/pep_133/smileys/rofl.gif?t=1241899258

It will if he is wearing the "Silence of the Lambs" / Lector outfit.
