How to remove and disable BlueTooth support on Debian GNU / Linux servers

Hi Hassiabiker,

I guess the update-rc.d bluetooth remove should be working.
If it is not working you can always do it manually with:
/sbin/runlevel

If it shows for example 5 it means you’re in runlevel 5 so to remove bluetooth just do:

cd /etc/rc5.d; ls -al *bluetooth*; then rename any reference to bluetooth from S*something to K99-theNumber behind S capital letter
for example if you have /etc/rc5.d/S20bluetooth to disable it do:
mv /etc/rc5.d/S20bluetooth /etc/rc5.d/K79bluetooth
and also to stop it for current boot do:
/etc/init.d/bluetooth stop

I don’t know what will be the situation with the bluetooth modules but you can check it with:

lsmod|grep -i bluetooth
or something and then just disable all modules that are loaded for bluetooth use and follow my instructions and add the respective bluetooth module to be disabled in /etc/modules just like I point in the article.

On next booth it should not load any more.

Hope this helps
Regards,

Georgi

Hi Stan,

I guess you cannot read the writtings on the icon as it is in cyrillic.
This is not Saint Mary and Saint Peter but Adam and Eve written in cyrillic on top of the icon.
Actually in orthodoxy it is a requirement for the depicted personalities, especially saints to have
written on the names of the saint and have the Halo. If you look closely at the picture you will notice
the two Adam and Eve are missing a Halo. The only person with a Halo in the icon is Saint John the Baptist.

Best Regards

       –rwo, –report-warnings-only
              This option causes only warning messages to be displayed. This can be useful when rkhunter is run via cron. Other options may
              be used to force other items of information to be displayed.

       –sk, –skip-keypress
              When  the  –check command option is used, after certain sections of tests, the user will be prompted to press the return key
              in order to continue. This option disables that feature, and rkhunter will run until all the tests have completed.
