/sbin/chkconfig --level 35 daemon on

In the above command, replace daemon with the name of the service you are activating. To get

a list of services on the system as well as what runlevel they are set to activate on, issue the

following command:

/sbin/chkconfig --list

Warning

Turning any of the above services on using chkconfig does not actually start the

daemon. To do this use the /sbin/service command. See Section 3, “Starting

the Piranha Configuration Tool Service” for an example of how to use the

/sbin/service command.

For more information on runlevels and configuring services with ntsysv and the Services

Configuration Tool, refer to the chapter titled "Controlling Access to Services" in the Red Hat

Enterprise Linux System Administration Guide.

2. Setting a Password for the Piranha Configuration

Tool

Before using the Piranha Configuration Tool for the first time on the primary LVS router, you

must restrict access to it by creating a password. To do this, login as root and issue the

following command:

/usr/sbin/piranha-passwd

After entering this command, create the administrative password when prompted.

Warning

For a password to be more secure, it should not contain proper nouns,

commonly used acronyms, or words in a dictionary from any language. Do not

leave the password unencrypted anywhere on the system.

If the password is changed during an active Piranha Configuration Tool session, the

administrator is prompted to provide the new password.

3. Starting the Piranha Configuration Tool Service

After you have set the password for the Piranha Configuration Tool, start or restart the

piranha-gui service located in /etc/rc.d/init.d/piranha-gui. To do this, type the
