Re: debian init.d scripts
This is explained on the following web page:

I am new to Debian, but as I understand it, Debian is working to reduce
the number of scripts that you have to edit. The scripts reference
configuration files (in /etc). You don't edit the scripts; you just
edit the configuration files.
I was trying to configure some network stuff, and I was reading the
Running Debian book on the O'Reilly web site. The book was written for
Debian 2.1, and described how I needed to edit some scripts to get my
network going. Well, I'm running 2.2, and it turned out that I just
needed to edit a single config file in /etc and I was done. Cool.
