Thanks for the tip. I'll use this.
However, someone who knows about this probably know how to manually
configure their system already.

I want to make sure first timers and newbies don't miss important messages
on how to configure the system.

Often we get inquires about stuff that is clearly described in the pkg
message and bug reports that are a consequence of wrong configuration.
How can we make this more clear so that it is not missed?
