Hi,
      I have a script file, i want that script to be executed on system
startup.

 I am doing this on Linux in following two steps : -

1. Copying the script to /etc/rc.d directory.
2. /sbin/chkconfig --add "scriptname"


I want to achieve the same on FreeBSD

chckconfig file is not present, documentation says i have to add it to
rc.conf file.

How can i add it to rc.conf file, is there any command?

You don't need any command. Depending on the version of FreeBSD, put your script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and if you are using earlier than 6.X FreeBSD name the script chckconfig.sh

You can name it in the same in 6.X and 7.X and it will work.

Be sure the script is chmod'd (usually 755) to execute. Since your script runs without a known environment be sure to either use full pathnames for executables or set the path in your script.
