in /etc/init.d/ you will find a whole lot of scripts that are used to stop and start scripts. e.g. /etc/init.d/somescript start OR /etc/init.d/somescript stop
By symbolically liking those scripts to the directory of your chosen run level (e.g. /etc/rc2.d for run level 2) you can cause those services to stop or start when entering or leaving that runlevel. The way you name the link is important though, instead of ln -s /etc/init.d/somescript /etc/rc2.d/somescript , put a S for start or K for kill, followed by two digits for the order something should start or be killed. e.g. ln -s /etc/init.d/somescript /etc/rc2.d/S99somescript to make it one of the last scripts to be started or ln -s /etc/init.d/somescript /etc/rc2.d/S50somescript to make it start earlier. To stop these things from being started for a runlevel,delete the link from the appropriate runlevel dir. gotit? goodest luck Glenn On Mon, 2004-06-14 at 21:01, Jacob Friis Larsen wrote: > How do I control which services I would like to have running at each > runlevel? > > Thanks, > Jacob > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
