Asunto: [DNG] [Kali Linux 0003165]: Find a way to disable most services by default with systemd

Mostly for historical reasons, I'm posting here below the trace of a
Kali Linux bug that has just been deleted from their tracker.

Forensic distros are useful for many reasons. When minimal they can be
also more reliable, I guess most people here convenes. So now I'm
trying to get the Parrot OS developers interested in having a spin
based on Devuan, with no success. Unfortunately Their parrot-build
scripts are admittedly still incomplete to reproduce a release.

Anyone here has a strong (perhaps professional, hence sustainable)
interest in a forensic distro without systemd?

Summary:                    Find a way to disable most services by default with
systemd
Description: 
Kali forks update-rc.d to disable most services that depend on $network to avoid
having services be accessible without any admin configuration.


Kali Rolling switched to systemd and the hack in update-rc.d is now mostly
useless. We must find a new solution for this.

It looks like that the proper answer is using a "preset" file:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Preset/

This answers at least how to not enable services by default. But it doesn't
answer how to not start any service in "forensic" mode. This is probably
implemented with a different "target" at boot time.

Unfortunately, it looks like we can't use Preset file in Debian currently. I
just filed a bug about this:

It looks like most of the services are still properly disabled thanks to some
systemd/update-rc.d integration. But there are corner cases when the packages
ships a .service file that does not have the same name as the init script.

I just filed http://bugs.debian.org/781155 on openbsd-inetd for example. And
also the update-rc.d integration with systemd is somewhat problematic:

Hi there and apologies for slight off-topic, just mentioning:

In case you do experience too many problems with the systemd switch of Debian,
we have arms open over at Devuan with a beta release approaching and a complete
CI that is building packages for all original targets, see http://devuan.org

Even just an experimental branch of Kali 2.0 based on Devuan would be easy to do
and may provide a better experience for both users and developers.

Jaromil, in fact the switch has been rather smooth for us and we look forward to
taking advantages of systemd's feature set!

This issue should be fixed with init-system-helpers_1.28+kali3.dsc and
base-files 2016.2.0.

base-files provides systemctl preset files and init-system-helpers has been
modified so that "deb-systemd-helper enable" calls "systemctl preset" instead of
doing the work itself.
