Title:
  Not possible to modify the status of certain services

Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  if I try to query the status of the service "network-interface" by
  executing either:

  service network-interface status
  status network-interface
  initctl status network-interface

  I just get the following error message:

  service network-interface status
  status: Unknown parameter: INTERFACE

  Modifying the status of this service (e.g. with start/stop/restart stanzas) is not possible either.
  This happens in Raring and also in Quantal (early Ubuntu versions untested).

  Kind regards,
  Jan
