what about "/etc/init.d/ntpd zap"? It deletes the file on /var/.... and set the status of the init.d-file as not
started. It is useful for such a case :)

Hi folks,
maybe I've found a problem in the init.d stuff:
It seems that /var/lib/init.d/started/* is blindly trusted,
instead of actually checking if some service is running.
For example, ntpd cannot be restarted via its init.d script
if it died for some reason - /var/lib/init.d/started/ntpd
has to be removed manually.
I've filed a bug for it:
