Right! (In fact I don't remember my post allegating the contrary :)

100% agreed also!

Depending on it? Hell NO!
But why don't we make things work under most sys 
(even the worse) using there tools?
What I would like to know is: What do we break adding
chkconfig style comment to the init file, perhaps I'm missing
spmething?
And to make the point clear, I'm definitely not one 
of the chkconfig's fan.
