This name change will stop those scripts at run level 2, preferably you can do the same thing with chkconfig if you have installed it what is a safer method of doing this (e.g. chkconfig --levels 2345 laptop-mode off). I am not certain on if these scripts should be turnt off tho I am afraid, I haven't ever tried turning a laptop into a server.
However, personally I'd advise not using a laptop as a server, What is the particular needs that have led you into requiring an SSH and Apache server?

I renamed those 3 scripts (since chkconfig --levels 2345 laptop-mode off did not work). I rebooted the computer and I'll begin monitoring of the uptime to see if the problem has been resolved.
I am using Apache and SSH to host my own website. I chose to use a laptop because it's an older computer I no longer use, and I wanted to repurpose it.
Little more I can suggest I am afraid, suspend mode needs to be completely disabled and I have never had a reason to ever do that before... I would suggest should you be able to get this laptop working you check that it infact does not over-heat. I can't imagine laptops liking being powered 24/7 and their cooling is not generally designed for that type of usage.
I don't think it overheats because when I ran Windows XP and Windows Server, I never had any overheating issues. Is there any way to check from the terminal in internal temperatures of the computer?
What is the best way to disable suspend mode? A google search showed me a few things people did and finally disabled suspend mode, but I would like to avoid the unnecessary steps if possible.
For the record, over the past 2 days I've noticed quite an improvement in the overall uptime of my server. It's drastically improved. I have to assume this must be due the changes in script levels. If anyone knows how to disable suspend mode, please don't hesitate to chime in. I hope disabling that will fix the few problems that are left.
