Imagine only this: look at /sbin/iptables and /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables (or /etc/init.d/iptables, since /etc/init.d is a symlink to /etc/rc.d/init.d). You want to run iptables binary (elf) and you launch iptables service, that's call /sbin/iptables to initialize IP tables with default values (using /etc/sysconfig/iptables for all default values you need). I have also this question in the past, but I've found myself that this idea is wrong, so I create symlinks to all the service I need naming with 'rc-' before their names (/etc/rc.d/init.d/network become, as symlink, rc-network). __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ing.
