Thank you. I learned something new. I really appreciate it when people are helpful like you and not snide like Mr. Bird. If I am not mistaken even though I mentioned I couldn't find the package, I did explain to the OP what was wrong and what he needed to do. Perhaps I baited him with the "what is it national..." statement, but it comes because a Fedora user had entered the message that I previously read, asking about chkconfig, which Greg so politely pointed out doesn't belong to Debian.
