Hi,
I have RH 7.1.
Before the logon screen appears, and after INIT starts, a number of programs are automatically started .
Which file should i edit so as to prevent some of these programs from starting and also to add some other program? (Something like autoexec.bat in windoze 9x.)

Hi,
You can run "setup" from root. There go in "system services" and you can select the programs you wish to run. and stop.
Or you can go to this directory /etc/rc3.d ( 3 , 5 ) depends on your runlevel. There u will see many programs with prefix "K" or "S".
"s" -> means start the progras. "K" -> means Kill the prog
Well ciao and enjoy...

Put your programs in /etc/rc.local it will be executed at start up.
For configuring service start stop in various run-level, use "ntsysv" in RH.
