Well, I don't know exactly what it is in this case, but services that
are managaed by chkconfig need to have a certain formatted comment at
the top of their file. This tells chkconfig things like what priority to
give to startup and shutdown, where the pidfile is stored and where the
config file is.

Have a look at some of the scripts in /etc/init.d (or /etc/rc.d/init.d
on some distros to see what it is meant to look like and add it in
yourself.

Cheers,
Malcolm
