I was referring to the re-boots that you might have to do when testing
the different combos of services. Granted most don't need a re-boot to
start, but I was thinking it might be a good idea, just to see if those
that are suppose to run automatically will start. Hope that made some
sense! 8-)

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
