Actually, I believe the better way to do this would be to put the httpd
executable in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ (which, I believe, should be the
default for Mandrake). Did you not install Mandrake's Apache RPM?
Try `ls /etc/rc.d/init.d/` Do you see httpd anywhere in there? If
not, copy (or link) httpd to this directory. That should start it on a
boot to runlevel 3 or 5.
Copying it to /etc/rc.d/rc.3/ would just start it on a boot to runlevel
3.
