    Code:
    rm /etc/rc.d/rc?.d/S??sendmail
    That's all.

    I do no know about rh 6 but in rh 8 go to menu-server settings-services From there you can switch the service off or on as required under the runlevel you are booting under (ususally 5 by default)

    You can also edit the file in /etc/rc5.d directory and change the sedmail foe S to K.

    Hope that helps.

    Do not do rm -f unless u want to delete it
