Look in /etc/rc.d/init.d (valid place in RH7.2, might be a little diff in mdrk)
There you will find a lot of startup scripts. Use these for EXAMPLES.
Take one, a short simple one, and copy it to a new name (maybe "vncserver"?) and modify it run vnc.
Create start/kill links under /etc/rc.d/rc[35].d pointing to your new script.
for docs, try the man pages for init, rc, init.d, runlevel, initscrit, or inittab. Also see the contents of the /etc/rc.d/init.d/rc file.
