[Cialug] How do you find when a program is used during init?

On a custom Debian-based distribution, ntpdate is being used in the startup, but I don't know where.  I'd like to find it and comment it out to test something.  What is the best way to track down a program that is running during init?  Is there a way to know at what runlevel it is running?

I've looked in /etc/init.d and in rc0.d and others but nothing is jumping out.

Thanks for any tips or pointers.
