Description Niclas Zeising 2006-11-07 21:20:17 UTC
I was reading through the "Securing FreeBSD" chapter of the handbook (section 14.3) and found some wording choices which I found wrong or hard to comprehend, along with some spelling mistakes.
The attached patch changes the wording and spelling in a way I find appropriate. Feel free to do whatever you like with the patch.

Fix: Apply the whole patch, or the parts you find good. (Note, I had to add the ".txt" extension to the patch so the browser would report it as text/*)

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: Read Section 14.3 of the handbook

Most of them are nice changes.  I only noticed one minor nit:

Great! My spelling isn't always that good ;)
Anyways, thanks!
