im tring to perminetly shutdown some services on slackware 8.1 but i dont have init.d and i cant find anything that will shut some services down.. anyways..

im trying to close and stop this port/program

111/tcp open sunrpc

and ftp as well.. but im new to slack so can anyone point me in the right direction for this .. thanx

an old redhat user new to slack, yeah? hehe

Slackware is a bit different... Closer to BSD architecture.
Just edit every file in /etc/rc.d and add comments (this: #) to service you don't want. It will speed up the system (who need to probe pcmcia without a portable or to try setting up quota on a single user computer?) at boot or shutdown.
I think the service your are searching is in /etc/rc.d/rc.inet2 (look for rpc portmapper)

Also, /etc/inetd.conf contain the list of all daemon starting at boot.. it can be usefull to comment some useless thing. It's very easy to get a box with ZERO open port on slackware.

hehe ya your right i am an x rh users and from what i see rh was the wrong choice.. i still have lots to learn from a more linux/*unix experiancing distros.. hehe thanx i will check it out
