Eh!?  One of the funny quirks with Debian(/Ubuntu) (given Debian's
traditional emphasis on security) is that most servers start
immediately from install very often without giving you the chance to
fully configure them (and they continue after a reboot).

It's only something I became fully aware of when I went from Debian
to Gentoo and back? to Ubuntu.

Gentoo _never_ starts a server after installation until you've told
it explicitly to do so.  Much better IMO.
