I know about the update-rc.d SERVICE OPTIONS command to add and remove services from startup, but how do I use it to get a list of all the services that are currently configured to start at startup?
Is there some other way to get this list?

1Thanks, the
service --status-alldid it, though I still have to find a legend to determine exactly what those symbols mean. Aug 20, 2011 at 1:02 -
@Lance: there is a bug in managing option
--status-all, see this AU question: askubuntu.com/questions/55992/running-services– enzotibAug 20, 2011 at 10:47 -
1I realize this is a little dated, but from my reading of the man page, it sounds as if this lists the current status, not whether they're configured to start? "service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command. This option only calls status for sysvinit jobs, upstart jobs can be queried in a similar manner with initctl list'."– ernieNov 5, 2013 at 22:33

2List of pretty much everything relevant that is running
initctl list | egrep -v " stop/waiting|^tty" ; service --status-all 2>&1 | egrep -v "\[ (\?|\-) \]"– kertMar 21, 2015 at 20:47 -

You could use BUM.

This looks nice, but I'm too new with Ubuntu to know how to install this on my virtual server, that I PuTTY into (or if it's even possible). Aug 20, 2011 at 1:04

Well, BUM is a graphical tool, so the command you've mentioned above seems to fit better yours needs.– desguaAug 20, 2011 at 1:18

You can install this without graphical tools. X apps can run remotely. Yes, even on Windows. You just have to tell each app where to run (e.g. IP address). It's possible, you can Google the specifics. Jan 13, 2016 at 18:26
