disable services

[ghartl1]

hi,

i use soho 5.8 with kde

recently i did a :ps ax..and saw some services runnig.

for example httpd
i dont have any webserver installed or simila(is only a desktopstation with direct internetconnection)

first i edited inet.conf(actually i disabled every service)
then i did the services unexecutable in /etc/rc.d/  )
but there isnt any rc.httpd service to adjust

this services are under /sbin/....but there i wont do anything..too dangerous for me

so where is the place where i can disable certain services?? (httpd, snmbd..)

unfortunately i deinstalled samba..afterwards my mplayer didnt started...after reinstall of the samba package all was fine.
and i dont know the dependencies by heart...

thanks in advance for your time..and thanks for the great distro..i like it..and i mean it(got mine per airmail ..2 cds recently)

greets günter

Ich empfehl' daß Sie 'the runlevel' mit VASM ändern. Wenn man von 'a server level' nach 'a desktop level' wechselt, ünnutze Server schalt ab. Zum Beispiel kann man von 'level 5' nach 'level 4' wechseln.

Wenn meine Lösung fehlt, führen Sie bitte find /etc/ -iname '*httpd*' aus, und zeigen Sie uns, was druckt aus.

[Apologies for butchered German...]

[Triarius Fidelis]

You can also try setting the services for your runlevel in VASM.

(I give up on my pathetic command of German...  )

[ghartl1]

sounds promising your german :-)

in vasm i have already cancelled the services..
default is runlevel 4(desktop with gui)

yesterday i did a ps ax...and i saw httpd with an R+

i will try tonight..actually i am not sitting in front of this box

thanks meanwhile for your efforts

That's just cuz I looked at dict.cc. If you spoke with me in person, I would know next to nothing. At least I remembered teh grammar from high school.

hi,
find /etc/ -iname "httpd" brought no result
but this below
root:# ps ax | grep httpd
 3438 pts/1    R+     0:00 grep httpd

root:# ps ax | grep snmbd
 3430 pts/1    R+     0:00 grep snmbd

i am not sure now, if this output above is from the search command....

i dont use samba...maybe this is necessary for database with mplayer or something else


the R+ implies that this service is running....
or did i jump to conclusions on this issue?

here is my rc.d directory

if there is something on your mind , dont bother to telling me

anyway, thanks for your time meanwhile

The tool you maybe looking for is locate.

First run as root "updatedb"

After that then "locate httpd | more" remember no quotes.

Then you should be able to find the executable. Using more
is a pager so for the next page use the space. You may also
want to check for "apache"

find would have worked; except that the asterisks were absent from the search string:

Code:

find /etc -iname '*httpd*'

[ghartl1]

okay i found neither with locate or find any (unnecessary)services....

i think i suffer from paranoia :-))

thanks anyway
