One Day One GNU/Linux Command 
=============================

chkconfig -- Update/Show runlevel information for system services.

Summary:

'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.

A runlevel is a software configuration of the system which allows only
a selected group of processes to exist (man init).

Examples:

$ chkconfig --list -- List runlevel info for all system services.

$ chkconfig --list xinetd -- List runlevel info of xinetd service.

# chkconfig --add newser -- Add a new service for management.

# chkconfig --del oldser -- Remove this services symbolic links from 
                            all rc[0-6].d Dirs.

# chkconfig --level 35 xinetd on -- Start the xinetd service only in 
                                    runlevel 3 and 5.
