/etc/rc.d/??? equivilant

ok... I created the file at /etc/init.d/rc.firewall, now why would I create a
sym link (forgive my ignorance), my understanding is that a sym link is the
sort of the equivilant of a shortcut in windows.

Shouldn't I just add a line to a script that is run at startup so that the
above gets run?

Or if being everything in that folder gets executed at start up then my not
just put /etc/init.d/rc.firewall in/etc/rc2.d/rc.firewall?
