services

[EndianX]

In books I own, and on websites everwhere, I see people say stuff like do service httpd restart or what not. However I don't have this service program. Does anybody know where I would get it? apt-cache search service returns way too many results. chkconfig is another like that, that I see everywhere but don't seem to have.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks,

Those are mainly RedHat-style commands. To restart a service, you can do something like "/etc/init.d/httpd restart" or something like that; if you really want "service", you can install the "sysvconfig" package. And instead of chkconfig, Debian uses the "update-rc.d" command instead.
