Not really.  The hint is in the name (check config).  You're checking or
changing a *configuration*.  If you want to do something else, like
start and stop the service it configures, that's something *else*.

You *might* *also* want to look into the "service" command.

e.g. service httpd start

[tim at bigblack ~]$ rm -rfd /*^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Huname -ipr
2.6.21-1.3228.fc7 i686 i386

Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.  Today, it's FC7.
