UBUNTU:How to NOT run vsftpd at boot time…

bootUbuntu

HI,

Im trying to prevent vsftpd to start at boot time and didnt find how until now…
Im using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
I have installing vfstpd via apt-get
I have removed the init script from init.d directory and did the following command :

update-rc.d vsftp remove
update-rc.d vsftpd remove

but vsftpd still run at boot time…

I would like to know how to prevent it to start at boot time and how to start it at boot time in case I change my mind.

thanks you all

Starting with Ubuntu 11.04 you can also use

echo manual >> /etc/init/vsftpd.override
