The first - parameter is the terminal device that the getty should run on. - * consolefont - If enabled, run once before sysinit. Sets the console font - to the first parameter. - * dhcpcdmaster - If one or more network interfaces should be configured using - dhcpcd, this service starts a central `dhcpcd` master instance. - * dhcpcd - A parameterizeable single shot service that signals the `dhcpcd` - master that it should configure a specific interface. The first parameter - is the interface that should be configured by `dhcpcd`. - * dnsmasq - A respawn type service for the `dnsmasq` DNS and DHCP server. - * hostapd - If the system should operate a WIFI access point, this respawn - type service can be enabled to manage an instace of the `hostapd` program. - * unbound - A respawn type service that manages an instance of the `unbound` - name resolver. - * hwclock - If the system has a hardware clock, this service can restore the - kernels clock from the hardware at bootup, between the `vfs` and `sysinit` - targets. - * nft - If enabled, restores net filter table rules during boot. - * swclock - For systems that don't have a hardware clock, this service - restores a somewhat usable time from a file during boot. - * swclocksave - For systems that don't have a hardware clock, this service - saves the current time to a file during shutdown or reboot. - * sshd_keygen - A wait type service that generates host keys for the OpenSSH - server and then disables itself. - * sshd - Starts an OpenSSH server after the network pseudo service and after - the sshd_keygen service. - * nginx - Starts the Nginx server after the network pseudo serivce. - * usyslogd - Starts and supervises the `usyslogd` syslog implementation as - part of the `sysinit` target. - * klogd - Stats and supervises the `klogd` daemon as part of the `sysinit` - target.
