If you want to know what all the different headers in the init scripts mean, you may want to check out /usr/share/doc/initscripts-<version>/sysvinitfiles.

The /etc/rc2.d (and 3, 4 etc) service files are numbered symlinks to masters in /etc/init.d/. These are maintained by the chkconfig command from comments at the start of each init script. You need to hack the comment lines to stop chkconfig from rearranging stuff out from under you. BTW, if you modify the comments then RPM updates will probably not update the init script, but make a .rpmnew file beside it; you should diff them to ensure the new init script differs only in the comments you have changed. Otherwise, move yours sideways, move the .rpmnew file in, update the comment again.
