Put them all in the same directory and write a quick script to loop through
the dir (make sure the directory's secure...). Then you could just add that
script to /etc/rc.conf?

Subject: Re: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/*.sh not working?
That works fine for ports, but what about truly local custom scripts?
For example, I have a server with about 400 separate MRTG daemons on
it. (Yes, they must be separate, for administrative rather than
technical reasons.) Each daemon has a custom script. These aren't
ports, and they have no rcNG infrastructure.
They used to work fine. Now they don't. Obviously something has
changed.
I'd like to have just a plain old /usr/local/etc/rc.d/*.sh file get
executed on boot, like it used to be, but if I have to change the
scripts I will.

For scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d You should add an entry to
/etc/rc.conf.
For example, if You script is somedaemon.sh, then add
somedaemon_enable='YES' to /etc/rc.conf and it will run at the next boot.
