On Ubuntu this should actually be an Upstart script, which is similar in that it serves the same purpose, but uses the new Upstart init infrastructure. http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ If you want something to run as a service, you need an init script, as mentioned above.

This is run on boot... see /etc/init.d/networking for another boot-time only script that runs. Then you just need to figure out how to ship that config (of course) :) I may be wrong… but I think the best way to do this to drop it in /etc/init.d/ and link it up using “sudo update-rc.d defaults” or similar.
