All the init scripts go in /etc/init.d; there are symbolic links to them in the directories /etc/rc[S0-6].d (where [S0-6] corresponds to the new runlevel being entered). Create a local script in /etc/init.d and make appropriate symbolic links to it in /etc/rc[S0-6].d See the man page for init for an explanation of runlevels.
