how do you tell 9.10 which programs to run when it boots?

I think 9.04 had a menu item in /system/administration called 'startup programs' or 'services', but I can't find that now. Eg, what's the gui way to tell 9.10 to not start up apache?

thanks,

It's called Starup Applications but it does not seem to work because I added a program to it but the program I added does not start when Ubuntu boots up and it did in 9.04.

I can't even FIND "Startup Applications". Where is it?

Menu--> System-->Preferences-->Startup Applications

I'm talking about non-user-specific things like apache2, mysqld, lighttpd, etc. There used to be a menu item called something like "system->Administration->Startup Applications" where you could control the startup of these things.
