Many modern services are started on demand, rather than on boot, and chkconfig doesn't have a good way to reflect that state. Systemd does (although, see previous long discussion, the choice of terminology is somewhat confusing, as "disabled" means just _not enabled at boot_, and _really disabled for everything_ is called "masked"). In any case, take a look at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SysVinit_to_Systemd_Cheatsheet, which gives some closest-equivalents. > Reminds me of one quote in Mathematics by John Von Neuman ``Young > man, in mathematics you don't understand things. You just get used to > them.'' My best guess that systemd would be in that category. Sure, some parts of it are that way — it's only software, after all. The "masked" terminology is actually a great example. Other parts are actually really cool, like management of services throughout their whole lifetime, relevant log messages automatically shown for "systemctl status", the cgroups control stuff (now easy to use on any system; previously the domain of specialists), the containers support.... there are parts worth understanding too. I know it's become a big religious debate, but you don't *have* to be a fundamentalist on either side, really. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
