8733db6ed1 IPF does not have ALTQ support (or at least not that I and several others
could find) so remove it from the information, give an example on how
such a setup can be achieved.

ac0dc22ace Fix an address specification in the IPNAT port redirection example.
Left as 0/32, it would only redirect Very Weird Packets(tm), while
as 0.0.0.0/0 it will indeed process all the traffic as intended.

3f0d1b56f0 Do what I swore would be done:
o Remove 4.X information, this includes notes and sections.

o Update documentation to reflect 5.X and 6.X.

o In some areas, try to make the new content version agnostic.

o Skip areas stating "5.[0-5] and later" as it's relevant - we
need a better way to handle these.

For several items, I checked the NOTES files, manual pages,
CVS history, etc.

bac2a185c2 - Reword some text.
- Use firewall package instead of firewall software application.
- Do not say non-stateful firewall's are "legacy" since they still
  make sense in some cases.
- Move paragraph about /etc/rc.firewall to the ipfw section and don't
  say it's outdates, just simple. [1]

930f075192 When talking about avoiding information disclosure, we generally
say we will be able to delay the actual break-in, since crackers
can still manage to get into the system if there is a hole.  So,
prefer saying "we can delay the actual attack" rather than "the
system is more secure".
