Hello all!
Just installed Obarun in VM and it rocks! I always was sceptical about Systemd and it's deviuos way of incorporating more and more stuff.

I'm pretty used to Arch and Ubuntu and I started with Arch back when there was a single config file for the whole system. But 66/S6 is new to me. I tried to read up about it but a bit to steep for me, I'm afraid.

So, just one question; is there a 66-command to list all running services? Yes, ps aux lists ALL stuff, but it would be nice to see directly what the 66-system manages.

I did manage to disable some service with a 66 command, so far so good.

OT: My patience ran out on Systemd when I noticed it had taken over resolveconf as well. I got fiber some months back and after a while I noticed that the everyday surfing speed hadn't sped up. And, of course it was a bottle neck DNS poblem. Systemd had taken over and pointed DNS queries to 127.0.0.53! Fixed that and surf speed went up again. I like config by files, as /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf. I don't want any compicated GUI stuff overlaying the real configs. I don't do Netplan and snap either.

Sry for the rant and OT!

PS. Was I stumped in console with zsh? Yes! Managed to set $SHELL to good ole Bash.
hello and welcome,
Two tools are used to show services.
For the whole system
# 66-intree
For a specific service
# 66-inservice <service_name>
All 66 tools can be run with or without root privileges and so to know about regular user services
% 66-intree
same for a specific service as regular user
% 66-inservice <service_name>
All tools come with the -h option to get the help.
All tools have html and man page installed on obarun. You have an online html documentation here: https://web.obarun.org/software/66.

And obviously do not hesitate to ask here. You will always get an answer :)

After a few time of practice and learn you will see that 66 is pretty simple to use even to create your own service. 66 works on mechanism not on policies that means that 66 will not take decisions for you (yes , it will not change a file like resolv.conf for you ;)). So do not hope magic automatic system configuration :D
Thanks eric! Just the push in the right direction I needed! There were so many 66-commands to bite into but 66-intree will be a good kickoff. I got confused by some older threads with "66-info" which isn't available anymore.

I appreciate the good work eric and thanks again!
