/etc/profile and cntlm question

I'm working behind a windows proxy server which requires ntlm. I configured cntlm and it works great as long as i manually run it as root. I tried putting it in /etc/profile and it doesn't run. any thoughts on how to make it run on system boot? thanks in advance, regards.
