As well, Debian does it a little differently then most others.

Here's to give you an idea: they still use SysV init ( instead of
/etc/services ) and they do it kinda different even then (from what I've
seen)

To get an item into say runlevel 5 ( /etc/rc.5 ) you actually add
something in /etc/init.d/, then call update-rc.d [script] defaults and
it makes the appropriate symlinks.

If you think this is confusing, use BSD. It's simpler there.
