newbi3 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Yesterday in my network supports class we were learning about Linux run levels. According to what I was told run level 2 is a multiuser-mode with no GUI and networking disabled. Today I was curious and checked what run level the server I had sshed into was running in. It says that it is on run level 2. How? If run level 2 has no networking enabled how could I have remote access to it? And if what I was told is wrong what is the difference between run level 2 and 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyb1980 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Linux is just the kernel. Each distribution will have it's own rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
