    I am looking for this too. Anyone have ideas?

    I noticed that under my Software Center there is an item called Services that is installed and this seems to be what I'm looking for but I still can't find it on any menu. It claims to be integrated with the "new GNOME Control Center" but I don't even see a link to this anywhere.

    Applications>Ubuntu Software Center>System tools

    is this what you are looking for?

    No I am looking for a gui to manage services (i.e. start, stop etc.)

    -Thanks

    you could use "bum"
    with this command:
    sudo apt-get install bum

    or you could get it from Ubuntu Software Center > System Tools > Boot-Up Manager

    hmmmm.... same problem here. Boot up manager is not what we are looking for. I have been searching for a while now, but no luck

    Re: ubuntu 9.10 services-admin application is missing

    The service-admin program was probably removed because Karmic has mostly switched to Upstart. I can't find any program that can manage Upstart services. Bum, service-admin, sysv-rc-conf, etc. only manage System V startup scripts.

    Edit: See this thread.

    Re: ubuntu 9.10 services-admin application is missing

    I'm having the same problem. If services-admin was removed, it should be removed from the system/administration menu too, but it was not. Is there a gui program name in 9.10 to enable/disable services?

    Is there an alternative to start and stop services without using the shell ?
