Thanks for the pointer.
That section must be new since the 8.1 handbook that I have locally.*
I did check there, and also looked for a newer version on the 10.2
memstick, but it seems not to be included in either the live FS or
the "doc" distribution set :(
* My Internet connection has been _really flakey_ lately,**
so I didn't check the online version.
** It works sporadically, but is very slow even then -- email
eventually gets through -- telco problem, nothing to do with
FreeBSD.
