Is there any difference in starting services

(1/1)

Bazoukas:
at different levels?

  For example, instead of starting Apache or MySQL at runlevel 5, starting them are run level 3.

  BTW, when I am done with all this, I will post A DETAILED TO THE POINT OF COMICAL "how to"    
 And Quirk feel free to host it on your very kickass web site

You need to start a service for each runlevel you boot into.  

If you set a service to start in runlevel 5, and you boot into runlevel 3, the service doesn't start.  Likewise, if you boot into 5 (XDM type GUI login) you won't start services set only to start in runlevel 3.

Bazoukas:
aah ok i got it. Thank you    

If am not mistaken RL3 is text only, so that would be good if you are running Apache and so on.
