update-rc.d is a Debian script which maintains the symlinks, and as far as
I know RedHat lacks a similar script. Its actually one of the "nice"
touches Debian adds over RedHat, and the reason I run Debian when I have a
choice of distribution.

Someone ought to port the update-rc.d script to RedHat. Perhaps I can do
it if I've ever got the spare time.
