...actually I don't know what are this 'K' or 'S' on the beginning mean :(, but I created only 'K' one as it is for httpd. I also don't know if '15' number is somehow significant.

What do I do wrong? How should I make my system execute some code on a
startup?
Hi,
K means stop (kill?), S start. The numbers behind K and S are the priority, e.g. the order in which the services for this particular runlevel are stopped/started.
Take a look at chkconfig(8) - this prog makes all the symlinks to the different /etc/rc.d/rc[0-6].d/ for you.
Maybee a short look at init(8) gives you some further explanation about the different runlevels.
But I am not really shure, if it is really nice, to put a modem daemon as a service there - maybee it would be better to link it somehow to the network scripts, so it gets started by the service 'network'. Anyhow, i realized my xdsl connection for now as system service with the following line in the xdsl script
# chkconfig: 35 23 18
and chkconfig.
(xdsl is started in runlevels 3 and 5, start priority is 23, stop priority is 18).
