Thanks Jerry!!

It seems to have worked.... I just go into the config and check it; only 
that part seems missing?? Maybe it's in a different place then /etc in 
FreeBSD and I haven't worked it out yet. Even apache22 daemon is not in 
/etc/rc.d.

Oh well am sure will all be fine more Google'ing I think for me :-)
