For servers that run from inetd, just edit inetd.conf and either
`/etc/init.d/inetd restart` (or `killall -HUP inetd`) to make inetd reread
its configuration.  No reboot is necessary.

For standalone servers, `/etc/init.d/<server> stop` will shut it down until
the next reboot (or runlevel change).  Follow that up with update-rc.d (read
the man page) if you want to disable it semi-permanently.
