it's not in /etc/rc.conf...  it's in /etc/default/rc.conf

like this:

local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d" # startup script dirs.
script_name_sep=" "     # Change if your startup scripts' names contain 
spaces
rc_conf_files="/etc/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf.local"

there is no /etc/rc.conf.local..  i've never used one before....
