My setup is simply, as follows:

rc.firewall in the /etc/rc.d directory
then I add the following line to my rc.local file:

/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall

everything works great and it's launched at the end of startup routine.

this has worked for redhat 5.2, 6.0, 6.2, 7.0 and 7.1

I'm not sure whether this is right for RH 6.2 (I'm on 7.1) but I think you 
should create a symbolic link in the /etc/rc.d/rc{level}.d pointing to your 
script. The name of the link should be: S[0-9][0-9]name.

If the program chkconfig is included in your distribution, use it.

To be sure how the system starts, look at the file /etc/inittab and 
recursively look at the scripts that are noted here (for example something 
like: /etc/rc.d/rc 5 -script called for the runlevel 5 on my machine)

See man inittab and man init for more info.
