Recently, I am using Nginx + PHP5 FastCGI as the new web platform. I really need a init.d script for PHP5 FastCGI. It is not so difficult according to the skeleton.
First of all, make sure to install php5-cgi and spawn-fcgi.
sudo apt-get install php5-cgi spawn-fcgi
Second, create the /etc/init.d/php-fastcgi script, as below:
#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: php-fastcgi
# Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: PHP5 FastCGI mode
# Description: This file should be used to construct scripts to be
# placed in /etc/init.d.
### END INIT INFO
# Author: Yi Zhao
# Do NOT "set -e"
# PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script
PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin

# Exit if the package is not installed
[ -x "$DAEMON" -a -x "$PHP5" ] || exit 0

# Add code here, if necessary, that waits for the process to be ready
# to handle requests from services started subsequently which depend
# on this one. As a last resort, sleep for some time.
}
#
# Function that stops the daemon/service
#
do_stop()
{
# Return

# other if a failure occurred

[ "$RETVAL" = 2 ] && return 2
# Wait for children to finish too if this is a daemon that forks
# and if the daemon is only ever run from this initscript.
# If the above conditions are not satisfied then add some other code
# that waits for the process to drop all resources that could be
# needed by services started subsequently. A last resort is to
# sleep for some time.
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --retry=0/30/KILL/5 --name $NAME
[ "$?" = 2 ] && return 2
# Many daemons don't delete their pidfiles when they exit.
rm -f $PIDFILE
return "$RETVAL"
}
#
# Function that sends a SIGHUP to the daemon/service
#
do_reload() {
#
# If the daemon can reload its configuration without
# restarting (for example, when it is sent a SIGHUP),
# then implement that here.

return 0

Add php-fastcgi into the start list
sudo update-rc.d php-fastcgi default
this will start for init level 2,3,4,5
