Upgrading from Redhat 7.3 to 8.0

Hi Janina,

I had a RH 7.2 system with few modifications; the upgrade worked great!  I
don't like the RH defaults, though...  Sometimes, their defaults seem a bit
random.  For instance, RH decided that Sendmail didn't need to listen to any
outside interfaces by default...  They didn't decide that in earlier
releases.  Interesting...
