SYNTAXsystem-config-servicesDESCRIPTION
This is a graphical tool for enabling and disabling services (including
xinetd services). Functionality to start, stop, and restart services is
also included.
OPTIONS
None
FILES
/usr/bin/system-config-services
/usr/share/serviceconf/*
EXAMPLES
To run this program simply type:
system-config-servicesLIMITATIONS
This utility currently execs chkconfig --add/--del <servicename> when
enabling and disabling services. This means that it does not have the
same default behaviour as ntsysv.
SEE ALSOchkconfig(8)ntsysv(8)BUGS
- Some services will not start or stop properly if started anywhere but
the console (system-config-services will appear to hang in these
instances). This is not a bug in system-config-services, but in the
individual services.
- Some services are incredibly hard to detect if they are running or
not. Starting, stopping and restarting initscripts may give mixed
results (ie. may fail if you are stopping a service that's already
stopped, etc). This will be fixed; until then it's a bug.
