Easy way out: Put "apachectl start" in your "rc.local" startup file. It is
"/etc/rc.d/rc.local" on Red Hat, but Red Hat is a little different in that it
puts all init scripts in "/etc/rc.d/". I don't know about Debian.

You can background any process by sticking an ampersand (&) at the end of
the command line, but I'm not sure that is the Right Thing to do with Apache.

I can mail you the Red Hat /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd script, but I don't know
how useful it will be to you on Debian. The Red Hat script essentially just
invokes "daemon httpd" if called with "start" as an argument, or "killproc
httpd" if invoked with "stop". Both "daemon" and "killproc" are shell
functions which do pretty much what you'd expect from the names.
