hi,
Alfredo said to add an entry to /etc/rc.local not rc.conf .. if you have 
read the documentation you would have known that rc.conf  should not be 
edited(/etc/rc.conf - Configuration file used by //etc/rc/ to set 
startup parameters for the system. Should not be edited.)
So if you want to start vsftpd at startup just make sure that you have 
LISTEN=YES in /etc/vsftpd.conf and this lines below in rc.local
if [ -x /usr/local/sbin/vsftpd ]; then
             echo -n ' vsftpd';       /usr/local/sbin/vsftpd &
fi
