Please don't. Modifying vendor supplied startup scripts is a mistake.
When you upgrade, or a patch comes out that replaces that file, your
changes will be lost unless you've remembered to have something recreate
them. Far, far better to create your own startup script. 

Come on, people. Creating startup scripts is simple, basic System
Administration 101. If there's no one in your organization who knows how
to do it, you sort of need to be thinking about your personnel
requirements.
