This lets you configure them before you start them. There are several ways to turn them on. I usually use "chkconfig <service name> on". You can also pick "System Services" from setup. If you want to use the GUI, then pick System --> Administration --> Server Settings --> Services and check the httpd and mysqld check boxes in the "Background Services" tab. One other thing, you can manually start services like httpd and mysqld by running "service <service name> start". You can also stop services, reload configuration files, and check the running status of most services. (Not all options are implemented by every script.)
