# service portreserve stop Stopping portreserve: # service portreserve status; echo $? portreserve is stopped 0 # service portreserve status; echo $? portreserve is stopped 0 Compare this with other services, say, ip6tables: # service ip6tables stop ip6tables: Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ] ip6tables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter [ OK ] ip6tables: Unloading modules: [ OK ] # service ip6tables status; echo $? ip6tables: Firewall is not running. 3 Among other things, this makes the service "unstoppable" in GUI service config (System->Administration->Services): you can press on "stop" button however many times you like, the service is still "running". One side effect of bogus "running" status is that it can not be *started* using GUI: GUI thinks it already is, and "start" button is greyed out!
