.SH NAME
install_initd \- install init services

.SH SYNOPSIS
.B install_initd
[\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fISERVICE\fR]...

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
\fBinstall_initd\fR enables SERVICEs to be run at system initialization
and shutdown. Each SERVICE corresponds to a Linux Standard Base (LSB)
conformant init script. \fBinstall_initd\fR creates symbolic links to
the scripts for use in a sysv-compatible init system.

.PP
If absolute paths are used for the SERVICEs, the init.d directory is
determined by their directory name. Otherwise, the default init.d
directory is used. This can be altered using the \fB\-d\fR option.

.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-directory\fR=\fIDIR\fR
set the init.d directory (default @DEF_INITD_DIR@)
.TP
\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR
enable verbose messaging
.TP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
