rc-update del syslog-ng default just removes the link from /etc/runlevels/default; that's the directory that determines which services to start at system boot time. Is it safe to remove manually from /etc/init.d? Yeah, sure, I guess. But the gentoo way would be to "emerge -C syslog-ng" and let emerge remove the files as it will drop all of the component pieces and not try to keep emerging updates when they come out. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
