/sbin/service, I know it doesn't work in SuSE, I never used Debian, I am basing this on redhat-like distributions.
Right. Just to be clear, normal Debian installs do not include /sbin/service . The app name is too generic for a reasonable search of the Debian package database, but I'd bet it is something peculiar to Red Hat and a few of its close derivatives ... but not SuSE, Debian, or Slackware, the three main distros, these days, with no roots in Red Hat.
Remember that the original question in this thread was specific to Debian-Sid, posed by someone whose prior experience was with Slackware.
