on a debian system, the scripts to start and stop the system's services/daemons reside in /etc/init.d/ . For example, to stop the bittorrent service execute the following at the command line:
>/etc/init.d/bittorrent stop
to start the bittorrent service, execute the following at the command line:
>/etc/init.d/bittorrent start
what if the package apache2 is installed on my system, but i don't want that service to be started when the machine boots.
the command update-rc.d manages the links between the /etc/rc#.d directories and the scripts in the /etc/init.d directory. to enable a service on boot execute the following at the command line:
>update-rc.d "serviceName" defaults
to disable a service on boot execute the following at the command line:
>update-rc.d -f "serviceName" remove
