Question: I get the following Failure Messages at Boot up and Shutdown:
AT Daemon Failure
Lpd Failure
xfstt Font Server Failure
Send Mail Failure
Port Sentry Failure
DHCP Failure
Question: What do these stand for/indicate ?
Answer: LPD = printer daemon
Sendmail = exactly what the name implies
DHCP = network service which gives out IP's dynamically to clients in a LAN
xfstt = X Font Server True Type (?)
Answer: I'm pretty sure you don't need sendmail at all and if you're not in a LAN, you certainly won't have DHCP, too. I'm not really sure at the moment, but I think printing is handled by CUPS in VL, so LPD isn't needed, either. If you don't have a printer anyway, it's not an issue at all. You should probably just disable the services you don't need through VASM.
