You may already have the answer on this one but thought i'd chime in case you hadn't. The run level editor in Yast is one way to accomplish stopping the service in whatever runlevel's you like, but that is really just a front end to the chkconfig database, so another way to do this is to run "chkconfig -l nscd" The -l switch telling chkconfig to list the run level's and what the setting is (i.e. on/off). To change it run "chkconfig -s nscd off" to stop the service from starting in all run levels, or "chkconfig -s ncsd 5" to have it start only in run level 5. You can then again run "chkconfig -l nscd" to verify it's on only in the run levels of your choosing. hth Mikey, Marek Chlopek wrote:

Thank you for the advice. I got as far as the command that prevents the nsc from loading, but nowhere can I find the file to amend to make the non-loading automatic. I suppose there is a boot script somewhere, but what is it called and where do I slip in the insserv -r nscd command?
you have yast in suse, very powerful configuration utility. yast -> system -> runlevel editor -> expert mode
most of things you can configure by yast. also you should download and install suse-admin and -user guides.
all the best,
