  Linuxconf scope configuration


  _L_i_n_u_x_c_o_n_f manages most daemons and system commands on your computer.
  Some users may have a special way to handle one service that is beyond
  the understanding or current capabilities of _L_i_n_u_x_c_o_n_f. In this case,
  you can restrict _L_i_n_u_x_c_o_n_f so it doesn't interfere with their manage-
  ment of that service.

  11..  TTaasskkss


  A screen presents you with all the commands and daemons _L_i_n_u_x_c_o_n_f can
  manage. Just toggle the X flag in front of a command and _L_i_n_u_x_c_o_n_f
  will, henceforth, completely ignore this service.


  22..  OOtthheerr uussaaggee


  This screen may be useful to disable a service temporarily. For
  example, you configured the named daemon (DNS) and, for some reason,
  you don't want to start it anymore. Instead of erasing the
  /etc/named.boot file or renaming it (its presence does trigger
  _L_i_n_u_x_c_o_n_f to start /usr/sbin/named), you just go here and disable
  named.

  This is easy and it provides a single place to activate/disable most
  system services.
