According to the man page for chkconfig, the on and off options affect only runlevels 3,4,5. Does anyone know why that is? In my kickstart post install script, I have a section that turns off a bunch of services and I was doing it by: chkconfig <service> off but then noticed that run level 2 always remained on. What are the consequences of doing it this way, vs specifying all levels manually? I'm not sure what happens during runlevel 2 so I don't know if this is a big deal or not. Thanks. -- Amy Tanner amy at real-time.com
