    [SOLVED] How to Change Startup Procedure

    Hi Forum, Have decided to stop using Hylafax and our two serial modems on our server running Clarkconnect 4.1 (RHE4.1)
    What file will I go to to edit so the program and two devices don't start up?
    I disconneted the devices and the log file is full of the attempts to get the modems working

    I think I found the way to stop hylafax service.
    I ran chkconfig --list hylafax and it returned
    hylafax 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
    then ran chkconfig --level 345 hylafax off and new return for list is
    hylafax 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
    I guess next time the server starts hylafax will not start.

    What about the modems?? do I need to remove the devices from a startup script??

    Restarted server and it is still trying to get the two modems working even though they are no longer installed.
    Appreciate advice on what I can change to stop the modems starting

    found inittab file in etc/

    # System initialization.
    si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
    mo:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0
    m1:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1

    remarked last two lines and restarted server.
    No more error messages on trying to start modems.
