Is it possible to change the settings of chkconfig on a system which is not running?
Basically, I have a remote system running Fedora-7, but with Fedora-8 on a different disk, and I'd like sshd to run when Fedora-8 starts.
Not important, I just wondered if it is possible. I couldn't see where chkconfig saves its settings.
That's because it doesn't....
From the man page....
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.
So, the "settings" are simply the links themselves....
