Chkconfig is a utility to update and query runlevel information for system services. Chkconfig manipulates the numerous symbolic links in /etc/init.d/, to relieve system administrators of some of the drudgery of manually editing the symbolic links.

This package uses the program "service" from the sysvinit-utils package for running init scripts in a predictable environment.

In Debian, there are several tools with similar functionality, but users coming from other Linux distributions will find the tools in this package more familiar.
