I doubt it! Sure there is, SysV-Init, so just put the symlinks into the rcX.d folders and rc will do the rest (or just use update-rc.d), but from what i've seen the service script just does this: '/sbin/service sshd stop' is translated to '/etc/init.d/sshd stop' Additionally you can list the status of all services and to a restart even if the script in /etc/init.d does not directly support this. I don't think that is a part of runlevel configuration, but just saves a little typing, or did i miss something? > > > > This is as part of the vserver package. > > And could as well be removed I'd say ;) IIRC it's not included in the > > alpha tools. > > hmm, are we aiming for the highest common factor, or > for a superset able to support _all_ distributions? After all the service thing really only saves you from typing 'exec /sbin/service' (or even 'exec service') instead of 'service'. I don't see a good reason for this. > Bjoern
