(Include the long description here.) This utility is available at Adam Shand's Blog page http://www.spack.org/wiki/AdamShand/AllEntries under topic which reads as follows: Chkconfig Wrapper for Debian I've long been a fan of DebianLinux, it was my first OS love and I've participated in the Debian community for many years. When I was first forced to use RedhatLinux it was generally a fairly painful experience with one exception; chkconfig is so much nicer to use then update-rc.d. We are starting to experiment with Debian at work, and as part of that ?BenHall, one my cohorts, has written a simple PerlLanguage wrapper for update-rc.d which allows you to use chkconfig syntax to manipulate Debian's start/stop scripts. The only difference from the Redhat version is that without any arguments it will list all of the services currently configured (which is the way the original SgiIrix version works). I give you Ben's very own, chkconfig.pl. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ISO-8859-1) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
