To see the names of all the services installed on your system: ls /etc/rc.d/init.d
Using 'chkconfig --list' makes more sense than listing the init.d directory.
chkconfig --list doesn't necessarily list all the services in /etc/rc.d/init.d
It does list all that were properly registered. If a service is not listed by chkconfig --list, it means it was not registered with chkconfig --add, and it probably means that there was a problem while installing the package. AFAIK, if it does not show in chkconfig --list you will not be able to activate it with 'chkconfig on' either.

Not properly registered with chkconfig doesn't necessarily mean that a service is not installed.
service --status-all is probably a better choice in finding the status of all the scripts in init.d, and not just those registered withc chkconfig.
