The chkconfig command can also be used to activate and deactivate services. The chkconfig --listcommand displays a list of system services and whether they are started (on) or stopped (off) in runlevels 0-6. At the end of the list is a section for the services managed by xinetd.
If the chkconfig --list command is used to query a service managed by xinetd, it displays whether the xinetd service is enabled (on) or disabled (off). For example, the command chkconfig --list rsync returns the following output:
rsync on
As shown, rsync is enabled as an xinetd service. If xinetd is running, rsync is enabled.
If you use chkconfig --list to query a service in /etc/rc.d, that service's settings for each runlevel are displayed. For example, the command chkconfig --list httpd returns the following output:
httpd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
chkconfig can also be used to configure a service to be started (or not) in a specific runlevel. For example, to turn nscd off in runlevels 3, 4, and 5, use the following command:
chkconfig --level 345 nscd off
