ACL for /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd or /usr/sbin/httpd

I'm not sure which ACL should I create. /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd or /usr/sbin/httpd. I'm using redhat.
So far I've seen only ACL for /usr/sbin/httpd is being created. Is there any reason to do so?
Thanks

well, since putting acls on scripts is ugly, and it allows root to start or stop services, what I do is put ACLs only on the stuff the init scripts start, and enable the ACL system after all the other init scripts are done.

I'm not sure I quite understand what you meant.
Do you mean, you are setting the ACL for, let's say Apache, by setting the ACL on /usr/sbin/httpd rather than /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd? Then you enabled the ACL system after all the init scripts has been run?
But what about if I want to restart the services at will?

Then you do it from within admin mode
