Maybe you guys are talking about system-config-control? The tarball is 
in http://www.indianoss.org/modules/wfdownloads/viewcat.php?cid=10 and 
you can find rpms in rpmfind.net. Since it was done a colleague of mine 
Ankit (CC'ed) who is the Gujarati language maintainer aka translator for 
Fedora, not a programmer and it is not maintained now but should work 
fine still.  It was imported and available in Fedora Extras for a while 
and got pushed out in a mass rebuild a while back due to lack of 
maintainers.

Since folks here seem to be interested, I have added it to the wishlist
