Newies", as she doesn't have the resources to continue hosting it -- it
also makes it easier for others to add to it as appropriate.
Update the Makefile to list the file, and support.sgml with the new link

You can (and are encouraged to) mirror the pages with CVSup.
If you are running apache as installed from the ports collection the
following should make a copy of www.freebsd.org available from
http://wwwN.XX.freebsd.org/. Of course, there are possible
variations on the method...
1) The CVSup file to get the WWW pages
(/usr/local/www/data/freebsd.cvsup in the next step):
www release=current host=cvsup.freebsd.org hostbase=/home base=/usr prefix=/usr/local/www/data/www.freebsd.org delete old use-rel-suffix
2) Add to /etc/crontab
1 5 * * * root /usr/local/bin/cvsup -z -g /usr/local/www/data/freebsd.cvsup
2) Add to /usr/local/etc/apache/access.conf:
<Directory /usr/local/www/data/www.freebsd.org/data>
Options FollowSymLinks Includes
XBitHack Full
</Directory>
3) Add to /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost wwwN.XX.freebsd.org>
UserDir disabled
ServerAdmin webmaster@wwwN.XX.freebsd.org
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/data/www.freebsd.org/data
ServerName wwwN.XX.freebsd.org
ScriptAlias /cgi/ /usr/local/www/data/www.freebsd.org/data/cgi/
ErrorLog /var/log/wwwN.XX-error.log
