Re: Modules, services and rc.conf

to start a service, go to the services directory and use the start command. ex:

$ cd /etc/rc.d
# ./network start
# ./cups start

or from anywhere:

# /etc/rc.d/cups start

you can also use restart and stop the same way.

to load modules, modprobe them, ex:

# modprobe cs46xx

Re: Modules, services and rc.conf

your modules can you just modprobe,

# modprobe modulename

the daemons are not so easy but you can take look in /etc/rc.d , for example network is restarted with,

# /etc/rc.d/network restart

some of the rc.d scripts give you their options if you just run them by name,

good luck

Edit: slackhack was faster...

Re: Modules, services and rc.conf

hmmm you can use telinit... but what are you changing? if you want to start or stop a "service" you can just do "/etc/rc.d/something {start | stop | restart}"
