One of the traits I hate most in a distro is the decsion made without asking to alias everything like rm with a prompt for confirmation (even for the root user #!&%). Usually I can find and fix that fairly quickly, but after massive amounts of grepping I can't seem to find where that is done by Redhat. I get damn tired of keying /bin/rm.

Does anyone have a clue where this is done by Redhat?

I would guess you're talking about the aliases in .bashrc.
# .bashrc


alias rm='rm -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'

One of my first thoughts.   Unfortunately there are no such aliases
anywhere in ~ or /etc.
I'm not following you. Redhat has forever aliased those 3 in ~/.bashrc. Are you saying that somehow its not happening on your system?
