I've just had another look at the rc script, you can do this: # rcctl enable pure_ftpd # rcctl set pure_ftpd flags /etc/pure-ftpd.conf Make sure "Daemonize yes" is set in the config file. The only real advantage to doing it this way is that you can comment the config file, there are no extra settings available - everything in the file can also be set on the command line.

There are two scripts (perl and python) in the pure-ftpd distribution to do this. They aren't needed any more though, pure-ftpd handles config files internally.
