Hello all,
This is a stupid question really but here goes anyway! I am totally new to all forms of Linux and hence not familiar with RPM pakages. I am using SME server purely as a Windows file server and hence do not need a lot of the services it provides by default. Since I have 'low end' hardware it was suggested to me that I install the services control panel in order to turn off the things I'm not using. In order to do this I first installed Stephen Noble's RPM installer following his instructions. Then I used this to install the service control RPM. Everything seemed to go OK, the log generated showed no errors. However when I go to the services section in the server manager I can check or uncheck the boxes as much as I like and it has no effect! I have tried re-booting between changes, no effect. Am I doing something completelt wrong? Do I have to install all RPMs 'by hand'? Any help with this would be much appreciated. I appologise in advance if I am posting this in correctly.
Steve
