9277da52e1 Move etc/rc.firewall6 to ipfw2+v6, update related rc.d and periodic scripts.
Since ipfw2 now does dual-stack, statistics for IPv6 come from the ipfw
scripts as well.

29886d86de The 'device fd' line became obsolete some years ago, when the transition
to device hints was committed.  The GENERIC kernel configuration lost
its 'device fd' line at revision 1.260, committed by peter@ on
2000/06/13 22:28:46 UTC.

Delete the reference to 'device fd', to avoid kernel build breakage like
the one described in the PR audit trail.

b246e9314d - Change the "jail_" prefix for internal script variables. This fixes an
issue where some global jail_* variables were overriden in the script. [1]
- Change "jid" to "jname" in rc.conf(5), since it's more a jail name than a
jail id. [1]
- Update examples and comments in defaults/rc.conf to advertise new
variables and the fact that some of the jail-specific variables may be made
jail-global. [2]

da1081964c Add a /media to FreeBSD. /media is a directory designed to contain
subdirectories that will be used for removable media mount points (i.e.
mount points for CDs, floppy disks, USB drives, etc.).  While the primary
purpose of /media is to provide a location for HAL
(http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fhal) to mount volumes, it could
be used by any application that needs to manage removable media volumes.

dba9e9ccbf Add a basic man page for the sysctl(9) macro interfaces. Previously man
pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces.  There's probably
more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be added
here.

Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.

c4af136d49 Commit the various network interface configutation updates I've been
working on.
  1) Make it possible to configure interfaces with certain characters in
     their names that aren't valid in shell variables.  Currently supported
     characters are ".-/+".  They are converted into '_' characters.
  2) Replace nearly all eval statements in network.subr with a new
     function get_if_var which substitues an interface name (after the
     translations above) for "IF" in a variable name.
  3) Fix list_net_interfaces() in the nodhcp case.
  4) Allow the administrator to specify if dhclient should be started
     when /etc/rc.d/netif configures the interface or only by devd.
     This can be set on both a per interface and system wide basis.
