[CentOS] 'service' command not present

I just did an install of CentOS 5 on one of my machines.  However, when
I try to use the 'service' command (such as 'service httpd start') I get
an error that the service command is not found.

Why would that be?  Where does this command come from?  I can launch
the services just fine using the respective /etc/init.d/ entries.
