As much as I love CentOS (been using it since 4.x), some days I just miss the bone-headed approach of Slackware and FreeBSD. Just edit /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf or /etc/rc.conf and you're done.
Nothing is stopping you from creating and editing a service in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ and enabling it. systemd supports launching SysV service files.
If you edited init files that were owned by packages, though, then you probably had to deal with package replacing them and losing your changes.
