NAME
rc-update - add and remove init scripts to a runlevelSYNOPSIS
rc-update add script <runlevels>rc-update del script [runlevels]
rc-update show [--verbose] [runlevels]
DESCRIPTION
Gentoo's init system uses named runlevels. Rather than editing some obscure file or managing a directory of symlinks, rc-update exists to quickly add or delete init scripts from different runlevels.All scripts specified with this utility must reside in the /etc/init.d directory. They must also conform to the Gentoo runscript standard.
OPTIONS
- add (-a) script <runlevels>
-
Add the specified init script to the specified runlevels. You
must specify at least one runlevel.
Example: rc-update add net.eth0 default
- del (-d) script [runlevels]
-
Delete the specified init script from the specified runlevels.
If you do not specify the runlevels from which to delete, the script
will be removed from all exists runlevels.
Example: rc-update del sysklogd
- show (-s) [-v|--verbose] [runlevels]
-
Show all enabled scripts and the runlevels they belong to. If you specify
runlevels to show, then only those will be included in the output. To
view all init scripts, run with the --verbose option.
Example: rc-update show
