or (if the script is enabled and does not override this behavior) at system boot time.
-Enabling and disabling init scripts is done by running \texttt{/etc/init.d/\textit{name} start}
+Enabling and disabling init scripts is done by running \texttt{/etc/init.d/\textit{name} start}
or \texttt{/etc/init.d/\textit{name} stop}. This creates or removes symbolic links to the
init script in \texttt{/etc/rc.d}, which is processed by \texttt{/etc/init.d/rcS} at boot time.
The order in which these scripts are run is defined in the variable \texttt{START} in the init
-script, which is optional and defaults to \texttt{50}. Changing it requires running
+script, which is optional and defaults to \texttt{50}. Changing it requires running
\texttt{/etc/init.d/\textit{name} enable} again.
You can also override these standard init script functions:
\begin{itemize}
- \item \texttt{boot()} \\
- Commands to be run at boot time. Defaults to \texttt{start()}
-
- \item \texttt{restart()} \\
- Restart your service. Defaults to \texttt{stop(); start()}
-
- \item \texttt{reload()} \\
- Reload the configuration files for your service. Defaults to \texttt{restart()}
