Ubuntu
portmap package

portmap has multiple init script links

Asked by Gianluca Borello

Binary package hint: portmap

Hi,

In file /var/lib/dpkg/info/portmap.postinst, line 91 I see:

update-rc.d portmap start 43 S . start 32 0 6 . start 17 2 3 4 5 . stop 81 1 . >/dev/null

What's the sense of create 2 init scripts links?

In my example, portmap is started from /etc/rcS.d/43portmap and /etc/rc2.d/17portmap, and at boot I obtain:

 * Starting portmap daemon... [ OK ]
.........................................

 * Starting portmap daemon...
* Already running. [ OK ]

I know this is not a big problem, but why is it configured in that manner?

Thanks for your work.
