The problem with it is, it is completely redundant and home-brewed since every package may (or may not) do so at its own by setting its own custom variable (or not). On the other hand there _is_ a generic interface to disable services at boot time: Removing the symlinks from your default runlevel. See below. > Apache2 is supposed to be started by other means on > my systems.

You can just remove the symlink, for example by using insserv -d or update-rc.d remove. Doing update-rc.d -f apache2 remove or insserv -r apache2 has the same effect. Note, I am not authoritative for what will happen with your report. Possibly such a variable could be added nonetheless. However, note there is /etc/apache2/envvars too. The general idea is to be able to start multiple instances at boot time. Hence we may further discuss whether one wants to enable/disable the apache http daemon per-instance in /etc/apache2/envvars or globally in /etc/default/apache2 only. - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJOrTpaAAoJEMcrUe6dgPNtsEUP/3zOjZNIKvsqbbgVnVHkAJBH kAXuwC0AFobWKaDNiufa1cuUkAZkGX6Et2rBglB/X3Y6TwNn3rBQOBsDYD7Vstp6 H9bWZYi7NCeBSy16EwoiqrInI03a+w5K8mOarKPHftTI3MO56Qo3vLnaF2APgw23 5pEYIJojAY8H9dRu3K7l91pGQaGCArdi+90KkWYJq1Y1qnWG1IU40hetRNwKDHmZ xO2OamgXl2k7Ztik9WEAWnm5gSBFXT7UJHGC7acrZXiB38FoMkxD73cOBVh4GxFE eYl+KSVcm10IUaHLeYSzDLvS+8W1iPgauDIMrwsWOOJ1WiyXIq5hOgYf/TIavMj0 8aZvduK0iu7r9ASktKsLBjXdepnpHqApnPX66zKGuacf+1CvSr1jqhXBdua4RLAe vZdmtjaOVo/mWzxO6uXKqnV5ZIRduPIYCmUvnfFoazL9iWIUu7lzzh5E663z39oZ ZbVTKmg1qmAfDNSU39NoRdRDmWcJD4QlRB1rPXP8Q8Qy15CI/OSX3OOARhAsNDjM WlYY52eQXfwd+xMXhA68d1EBs8UnAff/oSMBiL9rc2B3CWhCzP4kpjEmlgUd0dWA gKc/oWVGaqI23+5zfbnwSJM5L9UmdkJJ6Hg0zts8jYWDSoSzFKWPZncdQ4JtT68G keI7yvHNoeehNF4BbWee =B5qt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
