hi @Thulium-Drake

Thank you as always for feeding back on the issues found.
I have incorporated this and other into a new repository call RHEL9-CIS this is based purely on RHEL8 and runs against RH8 and 9 (as 9 benchmark is not yet released).
I will be adding this into this repo also, but though that maybe of interest as it contains potential newer ways of doing things.

Thanks

Hi @uk-bolly,
Awesome, thanks! I'll be keeping an eye on the RHEL9 as well then ;-) (not that we're deploying it anytime soon, but it's nice to have it on the radar).

Thanks for fixing it in this version as well!

Thanks for fixing this! Will this be released in a new tag soon-ish? :)
