/etc/init.d is intact, but to restart apache:

sudo invoke-rc.d apache2 restart

Or you can install a package that lets you do 'sudo service apache2
restart'.  I don't remember the name of it off the top of my head, but
if you search for 'sysv' in aptitude you should find it.

One helpful tip/trick: in dash (the default shell in ubuntu), you can
type 'sudo invoke-rc.d' then use tab-completion for the arguments.  I
don't recall ever seeing this behavior on another system.

HTH,
Chris
