On most of my systems rc.local can be found in /etc/rc.d/ (this is where 
all the are linked to) so if I do:
ls -l /rc.d/rc3.d/S99local
I get:
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root    root      11     April 5  2002 
etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S99local  -> ../rc.local

This is a RedHat system, but you should have something similar (you're 
running Mandrake right?)
rc.local should be a script, not a directory. Once you have the script 
working like you want to run /sbin/chkconfig --level 345 local on to 
make sure it gets started in runlevel 3, 4, and 5.
