NAME
       system-config-services - Service Configuration Utility

SYNTAX
       system-config-services

DESCRIPTION
       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-services

LIMITATIONS
       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 ALSO
       chkconfig(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.
