  Control one service


  11..  PPrriinncciipplleess

  A service is normally associated with a running process (a file
  server, a Web server), which you may (or may not) want to run.


  22..  DDiiaalloogg

  For each service, a dialog presents various information and lets you
  do a few operations. Here is a description:


  22..11..  AAuuttoommaattiicc ssttaarrttuupp

  When enabled, the service will be started at boot time and Linuxconf
  will make sure the service is running (and up to date) whenever you
  quit or activate changes.


  22..22..  SSttaattuuss

  This reports on whether the service is currently running.


  22..33..  DDeessccrriippttiioonn

  This provides a short introduction to the service, which is extracted
  from the startup script /etc/rc.d/init.d/service-name.


  22..44..  PPaacckkaaggee nnaammee

  Linuxconf tries to associate the service to the package that provides
  it.  The association is done by querying a package manager module (a
  Linuxconf module).  This module (for RPM packages, it is called
  managerpm) may or may not be installed.


  22..55..  PPaacckkaaggee vveerrssiioonn

  If the service can be associated with a package, its version is
  reported.


  22..66..  OOppeerraattiioonnss

  Beside enabling or disabling a service, you can do other operations on
  it from this dialog.


  22..66..11..  SSttaarrtt

  This starts the service and updates its status. You can start a
  service manually even if it is not configured for automatic startup.


  22..66..22..  SSttoopp

  This stops the service and updates its status. You can stop a service
  manually even if it is configured for automatic startup. Note that
  Linuxconf will try to start it whenever you activate some changes.


  22..66..33..  RReessttaarrtt

  This performs a stop and a start on the service.

  22..66..44..  SSttaattuuss

  This reports information about the service; it prints the output of
  the command



               /etc/rc.d/init.d/SERVICE status





  22..66..55..  PPkkgg iinnffoo

  If a package manager is installed and the service can be associated
  with a package, you can get more information about the package. You
  can also un-install the package right from this dialog.
