I am wondering why you are looking at the link in /etc/rd2.d/ for
apache.??

What run level are you actually in?  Most of us are in run level 3
(console mode) or run level 5 (graphics mode).

Run level 2 is seldom used, although certainly possible.

My inittab file has this as the descriptions of the various run levels.

If you are in run level 3 or 5, then changing the link in rc2.d will not
have any effect.

Using chkconfig it creates the S85 links in the current run level only
or in the run levels you explicitly list.
