I thought I answered you already - must have disappeared in Cyberspace
Yes you're right, only I think it's just sudo passwd but I've seen both methods mentioned. If you use passwd without sudo you set it for the current account

I did not think much about runlevel at first
In a Debian/Ubuntu system runlevels 2 - 5 are the same - see
http://www.debianadmin.com/debian-and-u ... evels.html

there are no run levels now only events. but legacy stuff is causing some confusion.
rc2-5 are really one event: system run (rc2 is the default the others are just copies).
but before that rcS is run which is a Startup event(s).

look in /etc/events.d/
