No no no no no.  That is the *wrong* way to do it!  If you do it that
way, then the very next time you upgrade your bind package all the
symlinks will be restored to their default configuration.  This is *not*
what you want.  You want to remove the symlinks that are responsible for
starting named, while leaving the other in place.  (for example, leave
/etc/rc0.d/K20bind in place).  This way, when you next upgrade the bind
package, your configuration of the symlinks will not be modified.

See the documentation for update-rc.d.
