If it's the same as Debian, then probably in

  /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/

Some hideous mess like

# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl enable freeradius.service
# systemctl start freeradius.service

I honestly don't know what was wrong with sysvinit, and this crap
winds me up nearly every week. Have no idea which services are or
are not actually going to start at boot time, and at shutdown
services are ripped down so fast they don't have time to stop
cleanly. </rant over>

If FreeBSD had apt I'd have jumped by now.
