You can enable and disable services during startup with the
"chkconfig" tool.  It basically adjusts the symlinks in the rc.d
directories for the various run levels (the real files are in init.d).

    # chkconfig --list         # lists all scripts at all run levels
    # chkconfig --list syslog  # just lists syslog
    # chkconfig syslog off     # turns off syslog at all levels
    # chkconfig --level 2345 syslog on    # turns on syslog for 2,3,4,5

There's nothing wrong with manipulating the symlinks directly,
the chkconfig script just provides a more convenient and less
fault-prone interface.
