i read in forum here that service does not exist in gentoo and nor could i find it in the computer so i did as mentioned and created a file named service in /usr/sbin then i put the following in its content:
#!/bin/sh
runscript /etc/init.d/$1 $2
and then

Code:

chmod +x service

but i get the result for

Code:

service restart xinetd

runscript should not be run directly

is there anything i could do further to make it work?
