The Debian way to turn off these services would be through sysv-rc-conf. Of course, that's just the simplest way in my opinion. The way you actually turn it off is: cd /etc/rcX.d/ X being the run-level you want to edit mv S(Y)service K(100-Y)service So basically you change the S to a K, and change the number to (100-Y), Y being the number that you are editing. -- http://digital-haze.net/~pobega/ - My Website If programmers deserve to be rewarded for creating innovative programs, by the same token they deserve to be punished if they restrict the use of these programs. - Richard Stallman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
