The preferred method is system-config-services, which is a pretty self-explanatory program.

chkconfig

Useful incantations

chkconfig --list [service]
Lists all of the services' statuses, or just a particular service's.
chkconfig --add name
The service named "name" will start during bootup.
chkconfig --del name
The service named "name" will not start during bootup.
chkconfig --level levels [--add or --del]
Specify the levels to add or delete a service. The levels are given as a string of numbers from 0 to 7. E.g. "35" specifies runlevels 3 and 5.
