This is not really true. The basic operating systems does not use
startup scripts ala SysV, but /usr/local/etc/rc.d is where user
startup/shutdown scripts are located.

To adjust what does or does not get started in the base system, see
/etc/defaults/rc.conf. Note that you should make changes to
/etc/rc.conf. NEVER edit the files in /etc/defaults!
