Since the original question has been answered I'll just add a little 
more detail.

Whenever you install some software that has a run script in 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d, there is an easy way to figure out which parameters 
need to be enabled in /etc/rc.conf. Just run the script with the "rcvar" 
parameter. (eg /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 rcvar)

The same applies for system services (sshd, inetd) that have their start 
scripts in /etc/rc.d
