(Probably...will one of you all point it > out for me?) I think the instructions are wrong. Remove the copies of the script in directories other than /etc/rc.d/init.d and run "chkconfig qpopper on". That should set up symlinks (not copies of the file) in the right places, so "chkconfig qpopper --list" should show that qpopper will start in run levels 2,3,4 & 5, which is what you want.
