Careful! You *must* use update-rc.d to install the symlink into /etc/rcS.d (with the correct options of course, as I've already posted). If you try to do things manually, you could end up hosing someone's system if they are using the file-rc package. You mustn't assume that the update-rc.d program works in the same way on all system setups.
