Re: Debian boot script question

[Jason Lenthe <lenthe@mailhost.sju.edu>]

Kurt,

I don't know what the proper way is (maybe configure it for inetd or
something) but what I did was move all the init.d scripts that I didn't
want automatically started into a subdirectory  of init.d called menu.
Then I wrote a quick C++ program that prints a list of all the scripts in
that directory and lets you start them by typing a number.  I'm at work now
and the program is on my home system, so I can email it to you tonight if
you want it.
