Thanks, that clarifies something for me, while it was fairly obvious
that insserv  would not work if the relevant script was not in
/etc/init.d, what was not clear to me was how accurate the man page was
for the SuSE configuration (e.g. /etc/insserv.conf.d/ does not exist)...
and what the interactions were with other tools.

I would guess that what YaST does is provide a GUI front end for
chkconfig. Been a bit lazy about finding out what the command line
options were given that the GUI did the job ....
