If you have /etc and /etc.old.  Then, do a diff on each pair of files
to see the changes.  See 'man diff' I created a directory /etc.old and
used tar to copy the files from /etc into /etc/old.

For example, 'diff /etc/file1 /etc.old/file1' will show the changes
necessary to chamge /etc/file into /etc.old/file1.  Create a couple of
small files with minor differences, like a spelling on line 1 and a
missing line 3.  Then run diff and see the output.
