Description marquis 2010-01-20 08:00:18 UTC 
The ACCEPT_FILTER_DATA and ACCEPT_FILTER_HTTP are not enabled in the
GENERIC kernel.  As a result there are all sorts of "help" pages
instructing users to run kldload and add accf_http_load=YES and
accf_data_load=YES to /boot/loader.conf.  If this is not done a warning
message is printed on each time httpd is loaded.

If the FreeBSD kernel is going to have these parameters, and
ACCEPT_FILTER_DNS, they should be enabled by default.  Even suggestions
that such tuning needs to be done just to install a webserver is enough
to turn novices off of FreeBSD, especially if they're used to OSs which
have no such requirement.

reclassify.  The 'www' category is only for things concerning the 
FreeBSD website.
