My SLES9 SP3 chkconfig man page differs from yours; it says: chkconfig is used to manipulate the runlevel links at boot time (see init.d(7)). It can be thought of as a frontend to insserv(8).
I'm back to it's a bug: boot.* services are started by "runlevel links at boot time" -------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail, including any attachments, may be confidential, privileged or otherwise legally protected.

You may want to > consider filing a bug report. The man page says so, in fact. To wit: chkconfig provides a simple command-line tool for maintaining the /etc/rc[0-6].d directory hierarchy by relieving system administrators of the task of directly manipulating the numerous symbolic links in those directories. Given that the boot and shutdown runlevels aren't officially defined anywhere -- certainly not in the POSIX or SVID documents, you may have trouble getting a bug report accepted. -- db ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
