Starting services on boot SuSE 8.0
How i can start my services, for example mysql or httpd while the system is booting.

Exist some GUI to manipulate the services, and save the configuration like Red Hat 8.

I'm not so familiar with Suse, but certainly on the distros I have worked with, it's quite simple to add likes to the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file for services to start at boot time

Shouldn't it be /etc/rc.local. A google on the web seems to show that SuSE does use /etc/rc.local, so try putting the line in there. If the file doesn't exist, then create one and see if it works. BTW have you tried out YaST to see if you can control the service from there. I don't use SuSE myself, but my dad swears by it.

sorry, I typo'd it - I have it under /etc/rc.d/rc.local

I have used this method on RedHat and Slackware, but I don't know about SUSE

In SuSE it's /etc/init.d/boot.local
Here's an example:
Code:
#! /bin/sh
#
# Copyright (c) 2002 SuSE Linux AG Nuernberg, Germany.  All rights reserved.
#
# Author: Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>, 1996
#         Burchard Steinbild <feedback@suse.de>, 1996
#
# /etc/init.d/boot.local
#
# script with local commands to be executed from init on system startup
#
# Here you should add things, that should happen directly after booting
# before we're going to the first run level.
#
#this enables 32-bit I/O for ide drives
hdparm -c3 /dev/hda

You can also do what you want with the YaST2 runlevel editor,I think.
