Actually, that's too strong.  The docs don't specify what happens if
<on|off|reset> is used with a service that is not already "managed" by
chkconfig, nor do they define what exactly being managed by chkconfig
means.

In practice, "chkconfig --list" appears to print an entry for every
service that has a start or kill link in _any_ /etc/rc*.d directory,
and it misleadingly indicates "off" for (service, runlevel) pairs
without any initscript link.  Also in practice, chkconfig <on|off|
reset> seems to modify only the specified or default runlevels, which
I find utterly unsurprising.

I should have said that the behavior w.r.t. yum-updatesd is the
anomalous, surprising one, but I can't really justify calling it
"erroneous".
