Everything changed in rc.conf can be started from the command line (I
think).  What change did you make?  Some things are a little more
complicated that others.  For instance, to enable ip forwarding, you need
to sset a kernel mib variable using sysctl (sysctl -w
net.inet.ip.forwarding=1).  Take a look through /etc/rc.* to see what init
does to start things up.
