Well, that was my second try, but none of the available service names 
looked promising.

I've often wished for a way to list all the service names along with 
their description. The info is already in the scripts, but I don't know 
of anything that will generate a list.

I never collected my wits enough to try

$ grep -l dhcp /etc/init.d/*
/etc/init.d/dhcdbd

but that's not the right answer anyway ;-)

Thanks!
