It may be of interest that the Red Hat 'chkconfig' was a reimplementation of the SGI Irix tool of the same name. (That's where Red Hat devs got the idea.) The recommended Debian equivalent has always been update-rc.d, although some folks prefer sysv-rc-conf . I'm not sure why chkconfig got dropped in recent (post-jessie) Debian, but it probably has something to do with them favouring systemd's systemctl, instead. chkconfig _was_ a Debian tool in the sense of being available as a supported package from April 2008 until Debian 9 'stretch' came out. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
