As root, you need to create a symlink to /etc/init.d/networker in 
/etc/rc5.d (assuming, IIRC, Ubuntu uses runlevel 5 for regular ops). If 
so, it will be like this:

# ln -s /etc/init.d/networker /etc/rc5.d/S95networker

The number in the symbolic link isn't critical, but you don't want it to 
start too early in the boot cycle and on systems where the link is created 
at install, EMC uses 95. Make sure it's an uppercase "S", though.
