I'm upgrading my primary server from RH 7.2 to CentOS-4.3.ServerCD. I REALLY like the ServerCD. Who needs all the fluff that comes with a standard distro? If I want a system-config-gooey I can run Xnest [1] and ssh -X from my laptop. Anyway I have two questions: 1) How can I collectively stop all the NFS, portmap, whatever? I'm hoping it can be manipulated as a group because occationally I actually will want to use NFS. 2) Can I safely turn off dbus, hal, and/or xfs? Or will something really bad happen if I try to run the system-config-gooey's without them? Thanks, Mike [1] Although I haven't managed to figure out how to run it without -ac.
