The RedHat/Centos way of doing things is to have init scripts in
/etc/rc.d/init.d that take at least start, stop, and restart as arguments for
each program that should start automatically. Then for the runlevels where you
want them to start you have a symlink where the name starts with S and the rest
is a number to make it sort alphabetically into the order that things should
start in /etc/rc?.d (where the ? is the runlevel). Likewise add links starting
with 'K' in the levels where the process should be stopped. There is a
convention for comments in the scripts so that 'checkconfig program on' can make
the links for you. Look through some of the other scripts to see how they work.
