How to start custom apps @router startup (built on stock FW source)?

Well title says it all, pls help the noob. I'm quite new with WNR3500L stock FW source and i would like to start some of my own apps when router starts. I couldn't find any of the regular stuff (like /etc/rc.d/ and so on). I've already included latest busybox to the source and it's working just fine on the router. Of course i added my own hello world app too ;)

Another question is that how can i enable telnet by default from the source? I'm able to enable the telnet with the enable tool but this isn't too great with "production" version of my custom FW. This wouldn't be a problem if i could start my own apps at startup of the router since this way i could build something like portable OpenSSH into the router and use ssh instead of telnet (which would be the preferred thing to do).

Thanks in advance gents (and ladies)!

Well thx for ur advice but as

Well thx for ur advice but as i said, i'm able to include latest busybox to the source code and also my own apps like "hello world". So that ain't the problem. Problem is to get these custom apps to start when router starts.

Well i think i'll try out the tomato usb mod and check if it has better options for customization. Cheers!
