Really? When i was running Debian, i'd agree with you. In that distro you enabled/disabled daemons with symlinks in the correct locations. Arch uses /etc/rc.conf where you add or remove items from a single array. Ok, to be honest; i haven't looked very deep into systemd, but so far i don't really like it for my systems. As for the learning part: good for you! Learning vi (basics) will be really helpful. mvg, Guus
