      Hi!

      The pfsense initiates services/packeges installed that they do not have an rc file defined?  As this:

      <service><name>ANYSERVICE</name>
      <description>ANYDESC</description>
      <executable>execfile</executable>
      <startcmd>mwexec_bg('/usr/sbin/anyexec');</startcmd>
      <enable>yes</enable></service>

      If no, i suggest that all the services with tag enable defined and without rc file are initiated on bootup.

        The package manager will parse that out and automatically create a startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
