I agree with you for the /etc/rcX.d symlinks but various packages (not sure about proftpd) start their daemon when upgraded even if it was not started before and there is no start link in /etc/rcX.d, only stop links : I had this behaviour with tomcat4 for example or fetchmail. I, too, find this behaviour a little annoying and don't know if there is a defined Debian policy. Philippe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
