Subject: chkconfig vs. /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd -- what does each do best?
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd seems to work well for me. I can start, stop or find
the status of apache at will. I just can't set apache to start at boot. 

I ran 
# /sbin/chkconfig --add httpd
then
# /sbin/chkconfig --list httpd
httpd    0:off    1:off    2:off    3:off    4:off    5:off    6:off


What is this, and what function does it provide.

What is chkconfig for and why should I use it?
