Not all of them, not the lazybones like me:
update-rc.d
I don't use the tool often, but IIRC the few times I used it it did what
it should, i.e. creating the links in /etc/rc[X].d
If my lousy memory serves me well:
To remove links:
update-rc.d -f [script-name from /etc/init.d] remove
To install the links again:
update-rc.d -n [script-name from /etc/init.d] defaults
without the '-n' option
To be sure please
man update-rc.d
