Please don't suggest I use linuxconf. After the experiences of last night I will NEVER have it installed on my machine again. I'm beginning to see why RedHat 7.1 does not install it by default anymore.

I'm assuming that there is a file in /etc that I can edit by hand?

From the console command prompt type ntsysv. It brings up a very simple interface where you can select several different services. Good luck.
