Hi, I am in the course of writing a graphical runlevel editor, and I happen to have the following questions:
1) What would you recommend to create the symlinks in the various runlevels, what is the preferred way of manipulating the runlevel stuff? a) ln -s b) update-rc.d My first thought was to use the latter, but I encountered a problem, which lead to my next question. 2) If I remove all symlinks in all runlevels (basically "update-rc.d -f proftpd remove"), create a startup link ("update-rc.d proftpd start 50 4 ."), creating a stop link fails with the following output: # update-rc.d proftpd stop 50 4 . System startup links for /etc/init.d/proftpd already exist. This seems a bit odd to me, I checked twice, the startup link command did not create any Knnproftpd links. So why's that? The default option of update-rc.d only lets me create links for runlevels 3,4 and 5, so this one's out since I want to use the respective runlevels independently from each other. cheers, sebas ------ - "And what will you do when you grow up to be as big as me?" asked the father of his little son. - "Diet."
