But I don't seem to have chkconfig, nor is it in the repos: > Hi Dotan, As other people have already said, chkconfig is in /sbin. As a normal user, you sometimes need to provide the full path to the script or program in order to run it. If you suspect that a particular program or file is on your system but you do not know where to find it, there are several ways provided by Fedora to help you search for it. For example: 1. My favorite:the "locate" command. You will need to run "updatedb" as root regularly, so that your filesystem maintains updated indexes. Then to find chkconfig, for example, just do this: [chongym@jadeblue ~]$ locate chkconfig /sbin/chkconfig /usr/share/locale/ar/LC_MESSAGES/chkconfig.mo /usr/share/locale/be/LC_MESSAGES/chkconfig.mo /usr/share/locale/bg/LC_MESSAGES/chkconfig.mo /usr/share/locale/bn/LC_MESSAGES/chkconfig.mo /usr/share/locale/bn_IN/LC_MESSAGES/chkconfig.mo Sometimes it spits out a lot more information than you expect ... 2. If it is a command, such as "java", you can use "which": [chongym@jadeblue ~]$ which java /opt/ibm/java2-i386-50/bin/java 3. If you are using UNIX instead of Linux, the "find" command works as well. In the example below I am searching for a file called SS7-SMS.pdf and specifying the base of the search as my own home directory /home/chongym [chongym@jadeblue ~]$ find /home/chongym -name SS7-SMS.pdf /home/chongym/SS7-SMS.pdf There is also an application called beagle that can do indexing and searches for you, but I don't use it and I don't know how to use it. I'm old fashioned that way ...
