Maybe your friend uses sysvconfig:
Package: sysvconfig
Priority: optional
Section: admin
Installed-Size: 144
Maintainer: John Hasler <jhasler@debian.org>
Architecture: all
Version: 0.10
Depends: dialog
Filename: pool/main/s/sysvconfig/sysvconfig_0.10_all.deb
Size: 23482
MD5sum: fefe7aa94d4c5513e5ea1a6d98ee5fad
Description: A text menu based utility for configuring init script links
It provides extensive explanations at each step.
Some features supported by sysvconfig are:
- Enable or disable services.
- Edit init links.
- Restore from backup file if you make a mistake.
- Menu or command line interface.
- View all services, each with its status and a brief description.
Sysvconfig also installs a 'service' script much like that found on
Red Hat systems.
