On Linux "who" start daemons?
Suse, RockyLinux, Debian use systemd
Devuan use scripts in /etc/rc*.d/* which are symlinks from /etc/init.d
Slackware: use scripts in /etc/rc.d/rc.* (for example rc.M start a lot of daemons, rc.sshd start sshd, etc..)
On my Slackware I see polkitd start at the boot.
But who or what start it?
ps -ef|grep pol
polkitd 2210 1 0 set04 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/polkit-1/polkitd --no-debug
polkit is not defined in any script
grep -irl polkit /etc/rc.d/
grep -irl polkit /etc/init.d
