5.3. Disabling
To disable the daemon, (as root) run the ntsysv utility and uncheck rhnsd. You can also (as root) execute the command
chkconfig rhnsd off
. Using these two methods only disables the service the next time the system is started. To stop the service immediately, use the command service rhnsd stop
or /etc/rc.d/init.d/rhnsd stop
.
