response to:
[root at wren /root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs start
Starting X Font Server:                                    [  OK  ]
[root at wren /root]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs stop
Shutting down X Font Server:                               [FAILED]
[root at wren /root]#

looks like it doesn't start but thinks it did.
