This question is very similar to this one: List of available services
For my specific case, I'm wondering if there is a specific command to show the full list of services under Ubuntu.
I did run a ls /etc/init.d
and it does show a pretty comprehensive list, but some entries are missing. I did see apache2
, myslq
, gdm
, and a whole lot of others.
But some of them are missing. One example is plexmediaserver
(I've installed plex server recently and had some difficulties in finding the name of it's service)
So to rephrase this question in as few words as possible:
Is there a way to get the full list of possibilities of {x}
for
service {x} status
Note: using Ubuntu 15.04
service --status-all
do what you want? – Mark Plotnick Aug 7 '15 at 19:41/etc/init/
