When you turned on wpa_supplicant with chkconfig, it creates symbolic
links in the various rc.d directories which begin with either S or K
(start or kill) and the numbers (priorities). Just changing the file in
/etc/init.d doesn't change these links. You have to use chkconfig to
turn them off or delete them, and then add them back again to get the
new links. *OR* you could change the file by hand, and then change all
of the links names to contain the new numbers by hand. One is easier
than the other. You decide which.
This is the content of rc3.d
...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 2008-07-10 21:56 S09wpa_supplicant -> ../init.d/wpa_supplicant
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2008-07-10 21:56 S10network -> ../init.d/network
...
which is correct. Exactly what I want.
I think this has been generated by "ntsysv" when I deselected and reselected wpa_supplicant.
But the next time I do "yum update" for some reason wpa_supplicant will go back to its original
position.
It's like there are 2 ways of configuring those services and they might not be synchronized.
I've noticed that in each file, after the info for chkconfig there is a "new" section:
for "network":
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: $network
# Should-Start: iptables ip6tables
### END INIT INFO
for "wpa_supplicant":
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: wpa_supplicant
# Required-Start: $local_fs messagebus
# Required-Stop: $local_fs messagebus
# Default-Start:
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: start and stop wpa_supplicant
# Description: wpa_supplicant is a tool for connecting to wireless networks
### END INIT INFO
I will try to add wpa_supplicant to "Required-Start" of the network.
