Using a simple command, we are given a complete list of services: service -status-all While its main purpose is to start and stop scripts and create processes, ‘service’ can also be used to see what services are running or stopped at any given moment. The ‘service’ command comes pre-installed with almost every Linux distribution out there. In this tutorial, we will go through several methods of listing/showing all running services and processes on a Linux-based server or machine, as well as go through some useful commands that will help you find and manage these processes and services. Because of possible cases like these, it’s good to know how to check and deal with such cases, as well as have the ability to monitor what processes and services are running on your machine at any moment. However, it may occur that a service can run without your knowledge, use up system resources, and even make your system vulnerable if security measures have not been taken into account.
