Ah, true for chkconfig, but for "service" that seems to be a Mandriva
specific thing/patch.  It doesn't do xinetd stuff on Fedora, Debian,
OpenSUSE or CentOS.

I'd like to get those things out of the way for non-Mandriva setups for
"service" -- is checking for existence of /etc/mandrake-release the best
way to detect a Mandriva/Mandrake setup?
