A side benefit to installing the sysvconfig script is that 'service', a script that start/stops services without having to use the explicit path to the /etc/init.d/* can also be used. Using the example of starting (or stoping) apache2 use <code>sudo service apache2 start (or stop)</code>. Admittedly, it's not that much of a difference from <code>sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start/stop/restart</code>, but it gives me pleasure. Glad you found it useful, Elena!
