Is this a bug or a misguided intention? # chkconfig --list nfs nfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off # chkconfig --add nfs # chkconfig --list nfs nfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off I know that I can do 'chkconfig --level 345 nfs on' and this will work but a documentation is far from clear on these points. The same goes for various other services. Michal michal
I have verified this to be the case with the latest internal build of the package. The reason it is doing this is because of some missing information in the init script /etc/init.d/nfs - # chkconfig: - 60 20 + # chkconfig: 345 60 20 This may this wayfor a reason that I am not aware of but that is why chkconfig does not add and del properly. Changing component to nfs-utils and arch to Alpha since I assume by this bug being against RC1 is the proper arch.
Um, that's the proper behavior. --add just adds the links in the default state (in this case, disabled in all runlevels.) The --level 345 on is the correct way to activate it.
