    Excuse me, before you run your mouth, maybe you should get your facts straight. Ive run Red Hat since 4.2 as a matter of fact. I just did a fresh install of 8, and it had the mentioned applications, plus a few extras, start up by default. I had to MANUALLY disable those items from each runlevel init... Same goes for the box I upgraded, it added services that were previously disabled. And has been that way in every realease of RedHat that Ive run. This has been the case using the RedHat Installer AND using APT-RPM for doing the upgrades and installations. Now it may not be that way using the type of installation choices other than Custom, but since I do a custom install everytime I couldnt tell you...
