This is the content of rc3.d

...
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 2008-07-10 21:56 S09wpa_supplicant -> ../init.d/wpa_supplicant
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2008-07-10 21:56 S10network -> ../init.d/network
...

which is correct. Exactly what I want.
I think this has been generated by "ntsysv" when I deselected and reselected wpa_supplicant.
But the next time I do "yum update" for some reason wpa_supplicant will go back to its original 
position.

It's like there are 2 ways of configuring those services and they might not be synchronized.

I've noticed that in each file, after the info for chkconfig there is a "new" section:

for "network":

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: $network
# Should-Start: iptables ip6tables
### END INIT INFO

for "wpa_supplicant":

### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: wpa_supplicant
# Required-Start: $local_fs messagebus
# Required-Stop: $local_fs messagebus
# Default-Start:
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: start and stop wpa_supplicant
# Description: wpa_supplicant is a tool for connecting to wireless networks
### END INIT INFO

I will try to add wpa_supplicant to "Required-Start" of the network.
