Hi,

If I edit the system configuration of a package and then update that
package with yum what happens?  Does yum overwrite my configuration file
with the new one from the new rpm?

Is there a suggested and tried method of maintaining the configuration of
a group of machines.  (We previously used autorpm and re-installed our own
rpm containing our specific configuration.)

Thanks and Best Regards,

Will
