By default (as it's called from dpkg), it only determines start/stop ordering.
I'm not sure how those links are populated initially. It could be that the package provides them, and is missing that one link. To restore the defaults, run: # insserv -vd ncid > Secondly, what is the potential operational > impact, here? Virtually none. You're only missing the kill script that affects runlevel transitions into runlevel S (iiuc). That transition will never happen unless you do it manually, and most people reboot into S, not telinit into it. > It seems to me this will cause a dirty shutdown of the > ncid processes, although I'm not sure how really heinous that would > be. No, shutdown and reboot are runlevels 0 and 6 respectively. That will still work. Regards, Arno -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
