It looks like you are probably trying to set up JNOS or TNOS. What I did when I ran JNOS was to create a new script in /etc/init.d and put these commands there. You could use /etc/init.d/skeleton as a template, but that may not be necessary. Then run 'update-rc.d <filename> defaults'. This will add symbolic links in /etc/rc*.d which will cause the commands to be executed (normally when runlevel 2 is entered). See 'man update-rc.d' for more details.
