    You can run mysqld manually in FreeBSD, too. It's just cleaner if you
    use the startup script.

    It's different for each OS. chkconfig doesn't take the same arguments
    on RedHat and SUSE, so there isn't even consistency within Linux.
    FreeBSD ports always install their scripts into
    /usr/local/etc/rc.d, and you can enable them by adding the appropriate
    xxx_enable=yes line to /etc/rc.conf. You can look at the startup
    script to see what keyword it uses.

    It's documented in the Handbook at
