9.1 Starting DCE Daemons
As part of configuring a machine, the dce_config script starts all configured daemons.
The START function provides a convenient way of restarting all DCE daemons that
have been successfully configured.
The START function invokes the /etc/rc.dce component script and, if DFS is installed
on the machine, the /etc/rc.dfs component script. You can invoke these scripts directly.
(The component scripts are described in Chapter 10.) In addition, you can start any DCE
daemon manually using standard commands.
To use the START function to start all DCE daemons, at the DCE main Menu, type 3
and press <RETURN>.
The dce_config script attempts to start all daemons that have been configured on the
machine. It displays what it is doing as it does it. When the daemons are started,
dce_config returns the DCE Main Menu.
The following is a sample of the information displayed by dce_config after you select the
START function on a server machine; for a client machine, the display is shorter
because fewer daemons are started. Note that when you run this function, it may start
some platform-specific daemons not shown in the sample display.

9.2 Stopping DCE Daemons
The dce_config STOP function provides a convenient way of stopping all DCE daemons
running on the local machine.
The STOP function invokes the /etc/dce_shutdown component script and, if DFS is
installed on the machine, the /etc/dfs.clean component script. You can invoke these
scripts directly. (The component scripts are described in Chapter 10.) In addition, you
can stop any DCE daemon manually using standard commands.
To stop all DCE daemons running on the machine, at the DCE main Menu, type 4 and
press <RETURN>.
The dce_config script attempts to stop all daemons that are running on the machine and
displays the following message:
