Hrmmm, just checked on an older system, it seems redhat decided to expand the functionality of chkconfig in their ES products to include runlevel 2. So for what Reuben stated earlier seems to be true for RH8, possibly 9 and changed on ES and AS probably in fedora too. -Tobias -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tobias Speckbacher Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 7:50 PM To: techlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: RE: Script to turn off unneeded services Actually on my ES3 system the man page also includes runlevel 2 in the default for on/off: "By default, the on and off options affect only runlevels 2, 3, 4, and 5, while reset affects all of the runlevels. The --level option may be used to specify which runlevels are affected." That leaves ummm 0 (halt), 1 (single user) and 6 (reboot).
