How to make service always start?
 

In fedora there is a graphical tool which you can use to always make a certain service start or stop for a given run level. How do I accomplish this from the commandline? I think changes make using chkconfig are lost after rebooting correct? What command permanently makes that change? Thanks!

What your talking about is Init scripts. Look in your /etc directory. Usually under names such as rc.d, init.d or rcX.d where X is the run level.

Depending on your system these are altered in diffrent ways, I know Debians, but I can't remeber how Redhat set them up.

chkconfig will save settings. See man pages for correct syntax.

The gui to modify services is under systems -> settings.

Cool, I wasn't sure about chkconfig saving settings. Thanks!

If you use chkconfig its easy.. say I want the service "sshd" to start on runlevels 3, 4 and 5.. I would do a:

chkconfig sshd --levels 345 on
