Debian doesn't have a hybrid SysV startup (this isn't so much a "Debian way"
thing, it's just not the way Red Hat does things), so yes, as far ask I
know, you need to make an init script. It's not a complex operation though.
Put what you want in /etc/init.d/<script> and type:
update-rc.d <script> defaults
[ And as an aside, you can just copy these from one of our machines if you
want! ;) ]
