The easiest way to create the appropriate symlinks is use
'chkconfig':
  checkconfig httpd on
(which will create an S85httpd symlink, based on the magic line
at the top of /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd).

Or, for a GUI, by using 'ntsysv' to control which services are
automatically started.

But yes, all that you need is the symlink.  (I'd suggest doing
it later in the startup process than '15' implies... you
probably want it started after named for example...)
