Luigi Rizzo ac4ed01f56 Major revision of the ipfw manpage, trying to make it up-to-date
with ipfw2 extensions and give examples of use of the new features.

This is just a preliminary commit, where i simply added the basic
syntax for the extensions, and clean up the page (e.g. by listing
things in alphabetical rather than random order).
I would appreciate feedback and possible corrections/extensions
by interested parties.

Still missing are a more detailed description of stateful rules
(with keepalives), interaction with of stateful rules and natd (don't do
that!), examples of use with the recently introduced rule sets.

There is an issue related to the MFC: RELENG_4 still has ipfw as a
default, and ipfw2 is optional. We have two options here: MFC this
page as ipfw(8) adding a large number of "SORRY NOT IN IPFW" notes,
or create a new ipfw2(8) manpage just for -stable users.  I am all
for the first approach, but of course am listening to your comments.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
