Can anyone give me a rundown on how startup scripts work in debian and how you would star up services upon system startup etc. Plus what are these cmds and their meanings:

invoke-rd.d name restart
/etc/inid.d/name restart

What is this init.d?

If anyone has any links to a website that would be great?

many thanks everyone.
