CentOS - Apr 2007 - centos 5 GUI disable update agent upper right

How do I disable the update agent in the upper right corner on centos 5?

I am looking for a command line way to do this.  I know I can right 
click on it and select quit.

THanks,

Jerry

? chkconfig ? a command line utility that allows you to turn services on and
off for the different
runlevels. Non-xinetd services can not be started, stopped, or restarted
using this utility.
You may nd that these tools are easier to use than the alternatives ?
editing the numerous symbolic
links located in the directories below /etc/rc.d by hand or editing the
xinetd conguration les
in /etc/xinetd.d.

Fred,

Thanks, I was familiar with chkconfig and I looked there.
After I right clicked and and selected QUIT on the GUI for the update icon
I looked in /etc/init.d and the only thing there that looks pertinant is
yum-updatesd
However, again after I elected to GUI the GUI icon for updates (so its gone)
a ps ax | grep yum still showed the yum-updatesd process running.

Is this the same process I a interested in? I was just wanting to confirm before
I
go shutting off "chkconfig yum-updatesd off"

THanks,

Jerry
