Viva a todos, Since at install time of my FC1 I did a pretty dumb instalation, Apache and Samba were not automatically configured to start at boot up and I have done it manually after. What I did was going to /etc/rc3.d and issued the following command: ln -s /etc/init.d/httpd S35httpd Now I have a couple of questions and a couple of assumptions that I believe true but am not sure about. So answers to my questions or links to further reading will be most welcome. 1. service command. I know a service in /etc/init.d (or /etc/rc.d/init.d/) may be started using the service command but I couldn't find any proper docs on it. No man page available. No --help switch available. Only the following is displayed when the command is run: Usage: service < option > | --status-all | [ service_name [ command | --full-restart ] ] Are there any more extensive docs to this utility? 2. /etc/rcX.d Inside the rcX.d directories, there are files named K99servicename and S99servicename. I supose the K stands for Kill at reboot or halt time, and S stands for Start at bootup time. Then the numbers are just a way of sorting the way the services are started or stopped. Is this correct? Where can I learn more on these matters? 3. ln -s /etc/init.d/httpd S35httpd Is there any FC1 text based utility that may create these links automatically instead of forcing the way manually like I did? Thanks for your help! -fs
