Configure Debian start up services with sysv-rc-conf
sysv-rc-conf
.I used to use chkconfig
to configure which service to run at system start up.
With my Raspberry Pi running based on Debian distribution, there is no chkconfig
😔.
The replacement for Debian is sysv-rc-conf
: Run-level configuration for SysV like init script links.
sysv-rc-conf
gives an easy to use interface for managing /etc/rc{runlevel}.d/
symlinks.
Install sysv-rc-conf
sysv-rc-conf
can be installed by apt-get
:
$ sudo apt-get install -y sysv-rc-conf
Use sysv-rc-conf
After installation, just run
$ sudo sysv-rc-conf
It will show a text based window user interface to easily manage which service to run at system start up.
List all of the services and if they are stopped or started when entering each runlevel by --list
:
$ sysv-rc-conf --list
alsa-utils 0:off 1:off 6:off S:on
avahi-daemon 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
bluetooth 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
bootlogs 1:on 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on
brightness 0:off 6:off S:on
cron 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on
dbus 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on
dhcpcd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off
You can also enable/disable a service through command line with update-rc.d
:
$ sudo update-rc.d minidlna disable
$ sudo update-rc.d vsftpd enable
You can also specific run level when enable/disable a service:
$ sudo update-rc.d vsftpd enable 3 5 # Only enable for level 3 5
Usage of update-rc.d
:
$ update-rc.d -h
usage: update-rc.d [-f] <basename> remove
update-rc.d [-f] <basename> defaults
update-rc.d [-f] <basename> defaults-disabled
update-rc.d <basename> disable|enable [S|2|3|4|5]
-f: force
The disable|enable API is not stable and might change in the future.
