    update-rc.d is the program to be used to install, remove and disable init scripts.
    to disable a service say, the pure-ftp deamon (pure-ftpd) at start-up, use
    Code:
    update-rc.d -f pure-ftpd remove
    for more info see the man page of update-rc.d

    Uh, no. update-rc.d works for /etc/init.d services, but not for upstart (/etc/init) services. I guess you didn't read the thread before posting?

    The problem is that to disable upstart services, you HAVE TO either delete or modify /etc/init/job.conf. This causes problems when upgrading the corresponding package.
