Disable SecureTransport from starting after reboot

Problem

-- linux boot startup
-- sles suse bash
-- chkconfig



On SecureTransport Appliance Servers with SLES Linux, SecureTransport start after server reboot. Is there a way to disable that?


Resolution

On SLES Linux we can check on what boot level the SecureTransport services would start with the "chkconfig" command.



On the following example, the SecureTransport service will be started during the boot process of the Linux:
# chkconfig -l rc.stransport
rc.stransport             0:off  1:off  2:on   3:on   4:on   5:on   6:off




To disable the service we would have to issue:
# chkconfig rc.stransport off




Next, the "chkconfig -l" command would inform us that the SecureTransport service will not start at any boot level.
# chkconfig -l rc.stransport
rc.stransport             0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off  5:off  6:off
