Learning Debian - run level question?

["Randy Patterson - [Tech]" <tech@patterson-pcc.com>]

Hey,

I've been using Debian/Linux for just less than year and have been 
irreversibly hooked. I've been studying up on the boot and initialization of 
the system and have a question about run levels. I know Debian defaults to 
using run level 2. There is a comment in /etc/inittab that states;

# Runlevels 2-5 are multi-user.

When i look at how a process has been started (just for example apache).

debian:/home/me# sysv-rc-conf --list | grep apache
apache2      0:off	1:off	2:on	3:on	4:on	5:on	6:off

Sure enough, apache has been started on all run levels 2-5. So here's my 
question. On a default Debian system are all run levels 2-5 setup exactly the 
same making no difference to the run level you chose to run in?

Thanks,
Randy
