You don't say if you have shell programming experience. Those who do, have an easier time with it. Simply 'study' the existing init scripts and jump in with your own, or modify an existing one (surely nothing illegal here :). Also check out the man page for chkconfig, to see how that works in Linux init scripts. Also try this... go to Google and search on "tutorial init script for Linux"... for which a wealth of info was returned.
