Yes. A script must be present in a runlevel directory in order to be 
used, and it must be named properly. Your distro probably provides tools 
for managing what's present in the runlevels (in RH9 there's System 
Settings > Server Settings > Services) but you can also just do it with 
symlinks at the command line. See /etc/rc5.d
