[asterisk-users] Re: Switching from FreeBSD to Linux - which distro?

[David Thomas]

On redhat based OS's I would do this...

You can run the following command to see what services are enabled:

chkconfig --list | grep 3:on

Then disable whichever ones you dont need... The services may vary a
bit depending on hardware or what packages you have installed.

I often disable everything except network, iptables & sshd; like this...

chkconfig acpid off
chkconfig atd off
chkconfig autofs off
chkconfig cpuspeed off
chkconfig cups off
chkconfig gpm off
chkconfig haldaemon off
chkconfig isdn off
chkconfig mdmonitor off
chkconfig messagebus off
chkconfig netfs off
chkconfig nfslock off
chkconfig pcmcia off
chkconfig portmap off
chkconfig rawdevices off
chkconfig rpcgssd off
chkconfig rpcidmapd off
chkconfig anacron off
chkconfig crond off
chkconfig kudzu off
chkconfig sendmail off
chkconfig smartd off
chkconfig syslog off
chkconfig xinetd off
chkconfig irqbalance off
chkconfig microcode_ctl off
chkconfig sshd on
chkconfig iptables on
chkconfig network on

then reboot.

David
