I don't think this is right. AFAIK the change in run level causes the
script to be run automatically. Note that on F9 the mechanism is
different from on previous Fedoras as it now uses the new upstart
system, but a quick look at /etc/event.d/rc3 shows an explicit call to
"exec /etc/rc.d/rc 3". (The OP doesn't mention which version of Fedora
he has but the new system is set up to emulate the old behaviour).
