Hi, i have used debian almost two years, woody and sid. Debian don't uses service xxxx start/stop. It was my first trouble migrating from mandrake. Instead, debian uses /etc/init.d/xxx start/stop. For example, in redhat/mandrake, to run apache was: service apache start, in debian: /etc/init.d/apache start.
And, /etc/init.d/networking start/stop, was what i used to get up and down my network interfaces. Allways worked for me. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Bort" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ray Olszewski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "Linux Newbie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 12:11 AM Subject: Re: starting and stopping networking | There should be a tool to manage system services, for example, when you | run apache as standalone, you can do 'service apache stop'.
