On the Mac OS X breed of Unix, AFAIK, /Library/Startupitems is the proper place for the startup script. This also requires a StartupParameters.plist file for proper execution. It gets a little involved, because you must (potentially) co-exist with other Startup scripts. And you may need to specify dependencies on other scripts or system services, to assure that when you attempt to start CFMX/JRun, that any necessary services are already started.
