SUSE tip for config files

I saw this on the SUSE list and thought it was worth mentioning here.

When you've modified config files Yast wants to overwrite, it will warn 
you that it is saving it under another name.  To bypass this behavior, you 
need to update Yast's md5sum of the file.  Ex:

cat /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc|md5sum \
 > /var/adm/SuSEconfig/md5/etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
