I created the following startup script in my /usr/local/etc/rc.d
directory.  Hope this helps!

#!/bin/sh

case "$1" in
        start)
                /usr/local/sbin/pure-config.pl
/usr/local/etc/pure-ftpd.conf > /dev/null && echo -n ' pure-ftpd'
                ;;
        stop)
                killall pure-ftpd
                ;;
        restart)
                $0 stop
                $0 start
esac
