Public bug reported: I discovered yesterday that my system still had an sshd process spawned at boot, despite my having turned off the ssh service with rcconf quite a while ago. Moreover, killing this process with "/etc/init.d/ssh stop" resulted in an immediate respawn (with no complaints from the script that this is no longer the preferred way to do things).
Some self-education about Upstart followed. It looks like the settings in /etc/init/ssh.conf are overriding user settings made through the legacy rc system. Please also reference this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1551949 (Also, what is the best way to disable sshd at boot under Upstart?)
