Take a peek in this directory: /etc/runlevels/default/ I think if you remove that link it will not start the service. In other words, if you have dhcpd in there, or one of the other runlevels, remove it. Of course, there is the chance that if it is installed, some other script may use it even if it isn't started. Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-)
