'dpkg --remove' can be very effective at doing this sort of thing. Otherwise, the easiest thing to do is to remove the relevant 'S' link in /etc/rc2.d. (But, be careful not to delete all of the links for a particular services in /etc/rc?.d, since then update-rc.d will replace them the next time the package is updated; make sure to leave at least one, like the K links in rc0.d and rc6.d.) -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
