RHEL-07-040730 Removes X windows when set to false and rhel7stig_gui is true

layluke opened this issue · comments

Describe the Issue
RHEL-07-040730 Removes X windows when set to false and rhel7stig_gui is true

Expected Behavior
when RHEL-07-040730 is set to false, X windows remains regardless of any other setting.

Actual Behavior
X windows is removed

Control(s) Affected
RHEL-07-040730

Additional Notes
This may seem a little counter intuitive at first, but X windows can run on a server without needing to be ran at a GUI run level. Some people like to use x-forwarding to forward gui's from a server to their local system via ssh.

Possible Solution
Remove rhel7stig_gui as a condition to that will control whether this gets ran or not.
