There was most definitely a program called linuxconf, I know early RedHat
used it. I have no idea if it's still maintained anymore.
I switched to using Webmin to manage most of my Linux systems. You can
download a .deb from www.webmin.com, it runs it's own webserver on port
10000 by default, and doesn't mangle your config files or destroy your
comments, like Linuxconf seemed to do on occasion.
