/etc/gai.conf is not a configuration file

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • During installation of our Linux servers, we modify /etc/gai.conf because we prefer IPv4 connections.
  • We do regular RPM MD5 verification checks to detect non-configuration files changes. File /etc/gai.conf appears in the tampered files list.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
