running my own script during startup

Hi, I am using scientific linux with is a red hat cloning.

I have written a script and I want it to be run during startup before the user log in.

How do I do that?

I know that there is some connection to the run level and the directory /etc/rc.d.

But I don't know how exactly to do it ?

So if someone can explain to me the issue with a little more details.

Lets assume that I have already a script and that it has execution permission, who do I make it run at startup before the user do login?
