I wasn't aware that I was supposed to have anything anywhere but in
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ Why would I make links to the other directories?
Not to; from those directories. There is one directory for each run
level; each such directory has "K??service" symbolics links to
../init.d/service to bring "service" down, and "S??service" links to
start "service" up. The numbers are used to control the order in which
services are brought up or down, and do not have to be unique.
Here's what my atalk setup looks like. I normally operate at run
level 3. atalkd is started at levels 3 through 5; I think I picked
these to correspond to NFS.
rgr> find /etc/rc.d -name '*atalk' -ls

To create these, I did something like
# cd /etc/rc.d
# for dir in rc3.d rc4.d rc5.d; do
> ln -s ../init.d/atalk $dir/S91atalk
> done
#
and similarly for the "K35atalk" links. I'm running Red Hat 6.0, so
this exact recipe will (probably) work to your machine. "man init" and
the SAG (System Administrators' Guide) can tell you more about the
startup sequence.
Please forgive my ignorance. I've only been with Linux for a few months.
No problem; I've been there myself (quite recently, too).
