In general, the scripts located in /etc/rc.d/init.d on Redhat are in /etc/init.d on Debian. Both are sysv-based, so there is not a radical difference like you will find with BSD-based systems like Stampede or Slackware. > Are directories in different places and named differently? They will mostly be the same. Debian adheres to the FSSTD, although soon will switch to the FHS for a directory/file location standard. So, Debian will differ from Redhat only in places where Redhat diverges from the standard. > Are people working on a standard linux. As soon as all GNU/Linux users switch to Debian, we will have a standard Linux. So, yes... we are working on this. ;) -Mitch
