"man chkconfig" to learn how to enable/disable services which run at system boot and also to list known service names. "man rpm", specifically the "query" and "query list" features to learn where a package keeps it's files. For vsftpd this will point you to /usr/share/doc/vsftpd* where there is a good amount of documentation present. Taking the time to read the documentation and man pages provided by CentOS will save you considerable time in the future.
