That was a weak example where "grep" actually makes sense. Though, I would prefer "chkconfig --list | less" when (a) I don't remember the name of a service and (b) when I'm not even sure a service is installed. While *you* may know that "chkconfig --list | grep foo" returns nothing when service foo is either not installed or when the run-level links have been deleted with "chkconfig --del", a newbie sees that the chkconfig command returns no error. On the contrary, "chkconfig --list foo" would return an error. Btw, rather than grep'ping for "telnet" I would grep case-insensitively and/or for "elnet". Who knows the service might be named "Telnet"? ;) And I didn't even argue whether "chkconfig --list | grep xinet" would be ambiguous. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9+13v0iMVcrivHFQRAggWAJ9kDVDwnYV+nhXQSK/I93Bjzbb7mgCfUmWa ytKBPsugRzE7cDS6QEB44bI= =saeE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
