Description gregrwm 2012-02-01 15:44:20 UTC

Description of problem:

http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html

section 30.4. Starting the tftp Server
says
/sbin/chkconfig --level 345 xinetd on
/sbin/chkconfig --level 345 tftp on
These commands configure the tftp and xinetd services to immediately turn on

that's not quite correct.
if xinetd isn't already running that won't start it (until the next boot).

Moving to doc-Installation_Guide component, as the issue seems to be there.

Thanks for reporting this, gregrwm.

I've edited the sentence to read as follows: "These commands configure the tftp and xinetd services to start at boot time in runlevels 3, 4, and 5."

This now implies that a reboot is required to start the services.

This bug is now fixed and available as part of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 release on http://docs.redhat.com/.
