[10:04] hi! is there a way to run a job before let's say apache starts? [10:04] is it: [10:04] start on starting apache? [10:06] and let's say it needs to be started before squid as well... is it possible to link those two like in the ordinary start on command? [10:06] start on starting (apache2 and squid) [10:07] I don't really know how to debug this so I'm asking up front [10:35] Tominator: those 2 packages are still SysV services in Ubuntu, so you'll need to say "start on stopped rc".
