/etc/rc.config SuSE Linux central configuration file.
/etc/rc.config.d/ This directory contains files used when services are
started, for example:
/etc/rc.config.d/i4l\_hardware.rc.config Configuration of
the ISDN card.
/etc/rc.config.d/i4l\_rc.config Dialing parameters of the
ISDN interface.
/etc/rinetd.conf Configuration file for the generic proxy rinetd.
/etc/resolv.conf Configuration file for the resolver library. Includes
details of the name server and of the search list.
/etc/route.conf File containing information for generating the static ker-
nel routing table.
/etc/runlevel.firewall Assigns init scripts to the runlevels of the fire-
wall. Init scripts for the corresponding runlevel are started in the order
specified. Symbolic links to the scripts are generated. If network and
syslog are specified in Runlevel 2:
Runlevel:2
network
syslog
Links are generated so that, when booting, first network then syslog
is started. The result then appears something like this:
/etc/init.d/rc2.d/K84syslog
/etc/init.d/rc2.d/K88network
/etc/init.d/rc2.d/S04network
/etc/init.d/rc2.d/S08syslog
Runlevel 2 is the default.
/etc/securetty List of the ttys where the user root can log in.
/etc/shadow Contains the encrypted passwords. Normally, these are listed
in the form of a ‘*’ users except root, so only root can log in. In
FAS, you have the option of not defining a root password, in which
case access to the firewall would only be possible via SSH and RSA
keys.
