ghostdog@backbox:~$
* To start or stop a service , type : sudo /etc/init.d/<service_name> start/stop
Exmpl:
ghostdog@backbox:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start
* Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server sshd [ OK ]
ghostdog@backbox:~$
Se posso fare una precisazione, il richiamo dei lanciatori tramite /etc/init.d/* sta via via diventando sempre più obsoleto a favore dell'utilizzo di service.
Visto che già lo si usa nell'how-to per vedere lo stato dei servizi, perchè non continuare ad usare service anche per le altre operazioni? ;)
service <service_name> start/stop/status
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this!
On a similar note, how do I prevent a process from starting up on boot? (and how to restore it later?)
Thanks again!
Best regards -
Joe
Usually it's as easy as:
sudo update-rc.d <servicename> disable|enable
This is the basic command and most of the times it's all you'll need. It will use the default runlevels to configure the specified init script.
For more details and a more customized configuration, as usual look at the man page: man update-rc.d
Bye.
Exmpl:
1、
alt+F2 open terminal
run the command : service ssh status/start/stop/restart
2、
run the command : chkconfig ssh on
