| 219320 | 2004-03-01 10:23:00 | I have Redhat linux 9 installed on two networked PCs both Dual boot with Win98 on seperate partitions. Still a newbie but loving (hating) the learning curve. Both PCs stall during the boot process on linux when activating sendmail. I seem to recall some mention of a solution but haven't been able to find it. Can anyone assist? |

| 219322 | 2004-03-01 10:50:00 | There's a few ways to do it. The easiest way is to run: redhat-config-services Stop sendmail, amongst others (Kudzu probably too.. Hardware Detecion). If you post a list here of the apps that are loading, myself or another user can help tell you what you may or may not want to load :-) Hope this helps Chill. |

| 219323 | 2004-03-01 11:19:00 | A quick way of listing all the services status is to open a console window, su - to root (don't forget the hyphen) and enter in chkconfig --list. You can either highlight the output with the mouse and copy it into your post by clicking the middle mouse button (scroll wheel), or do this to generate a text list: chkconfig --list >> /home/{your_username}/Desktop/services This will produce a text file sitting on your desktop called "services" - open it and copy and paste the contents here. To immediately whack sendmail on the head, you can whilst su - to root enter in: chkconfig --level 345 sendmail off |

| 219324 | 2004-03-02 07:18:00 | Much easier way to get to your system services - start a shell as root and type "setup" then choose "services". Also available from GNOME via "System settings -> server settings->services". | JohnD (509) | ||
