No, you shouldnt have to make changes to the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file,
this is the "default" config file, you have to make all the propper changes
to the /etc/rc.conf file, and leave untouched the /etc/defaults/rc.conf
file.
My /etc/rc.conf file looks like this:
----------------------------------------
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
# please make all changes to this file.
network_interfaces="tl0 xl0 lo0"
ifconfig_tl0="inet 10.10.103.34 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_xl0="inet 10.10.103.33 netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="10.10.103.31"
hostname="mail.domain.com"
### Miscellaneous administrative options ###################
enable_quotas="YES" # turn on quotas on startup (or NO).
check_quotas="YES" # Check quotas on startup (or NO).
### Network daemon (miscellaneous) & NFS options: ###########
syslogd_enable="YES" # Run syslog daemon (or NO).
syslogd_flags="-s" # Flags to syslogd (Secure Mode).
portmap_enable="NO" # Run the portmapper service.
---------------------------------------
I Hope this Helps...
