NAME
update-rc.d - install and remove System-V style init
script links
SYNOPSIS
update-rc.d [-n] [-f] name remove
update-rc.d [-n] [-f] name defaults [NN | NN-start NN-
stop]
update-rc.d [-n] [-f] name start|stop NN runlevel runlevel
... . start|stop NN runlevel runlevel ... . ...
DESCRIPTION
update-rc.d automatically updates the System V style init
script links /etc/rcrunlevel.d/NNname to scripts
/etc/init.d/name. These are run by init when changing
runlevels and are generally used to start and stop system
services such as daemons. runlevel is one of the run
levels supported by init, 0123456789S, and NN is the two-
digit sequence code used by init to decide which order to
run the scripts in.
