Actually rc.conf is a file, it doesn't restart. You can `shutdown now`
which will get you to single user mode and the exit to go in multiuser
again. Or you can execute the scripts in /etc/rc.d did some changes and
what to test them (ipfw comes in mind).

Specifying more precisely what you need would help.
