There is a set of directories in Ubuntu in /etc/rc*.d Each of these refer to different states and different levels of running the system.
If you want to add something, you probably want to put it into /etc/rc.local You also have a choice to do this at the login level and to have it startup when you run a shell, in which case you would put it into your home directory in a .rc file for your shell. This is best if you are running something you want set for command line services. As opposed to system or GUI services.
