You didn't say what kind of system this is.  Anyway, you could do the
following:

	cd /etc/rc.d
	grep -ri services *

That will search all startup scripts to find the phrase "services".
Find the script that contains that word and look at it to find which
services it starts.  One of those is the culprit (odds are it depends
on the network somehow)

BTW, rhnsd is the Red Hat update daemon.  It queries the Red Hat network
to see if there are new updates to be applied (you know...it drives that
checkmark-arrow-exclamation-point icon in the toolbar).
------------------------------------------------------------------------

BTW, it is RH9

Here is a copy of the output. As you can see, all the services
mentionned, are services he already started before asking about local
services, or am I understanding this wrongly.
