Unlike the old school unices where you tediously create symlinks by
hand, linux distros provide gui and cli tools to automate the process.
In yast, suse provides a runlevel editor under "system", or you can
simply issue a chkconfig or insserv command to  set the runlevels for a
particular program.

See the man pages on those commands for more info.
