Assuming you run E-smith 4.1, for atalk for example you do:

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop atalk status disabled
(or ....... smb status disabled, don't know lptr)
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save
/etc/rc.d/init.d/atalk stop

Look into the /home/e-smith/configuration file and you will see how easy it
is to see the definition status of all services.
