30.6.3 Start-Up Scripts
Apart from the configuration files described above, there are also various scripts that
load the network programs while the machine is booting. These are started as soon as
the system is switched to one of the multiuser runlevels. Some of these scripts are de-
scribed in
Table 30.9, “Some Start-Up Scripts for Network Programs” (page 595).
