Thank you! This was very helpful.
 

once this script exists, and you test it by invoking it as "/etc/rc.d/init.d/yourjavathing start" (and "... stop", etc), then

    chkconfig --on yourjavathing

will configure the OS to run it automatically at the runlevels that your chkconfig header lines specify.  and,

   service yourjavathing start

(or stop, etc) will manually start and stop the service.

Googling, I found this example:

and I think that I can easily modify this Oracle init.d example
