About starting and enabling services

English Applications

Hi,

Normally if we want to start and enable a service, we use:

systemctl start service
systemctl enable service

In opensuse TW though, there is YaST too which contains a Services Manager.

Do we use one or the other or do we have to start and enable services using both systemctl and YaST?

I’m asking this because on this page it says clearly that we have to use both ways to start and enable the sshd service. Specifically on steps 1 and 3. Is this correct?

Thank you.

@alexsec Either, seems that link needs some changes for 3…

Or to start and enable, just use systemctl enable --now <service> will start and enable.

I only ever use the systemd commands. (If you have cockpit running you can use that as well.)
