those are interesting links, thx! > How it translates to systemd I don't know, however. It would be really interesting if someone can share how this can be done on systemd, as we have reasons to install a service, install its config files we wrote, but *not* start it by default and/or control if that service needs to start on a machine and not on another without to much hassle or cumbersome Thanks, -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi
