man rc.conf [then type "/lpd" (no quotes) within the man page]:


<blockquote>

 lpd_program   (str) path to lpd(8) (default /usr/sbin/lpd).

 lpd_enable    (bool) If set to YES then run the lpd(8) daemon at
                      system boot time.

 lpd_flags     (str) If lpd_enable is set to YES, these are the flags
                     to pass to the lpd(8) daemon.

</blockquote>


This is in the rc.conf(5) spirit. BTW, if you don't start lpd at boot
time, simply typing lpd (as root) should work anyway.

Best regards,
