On this topic, it's just a matter of setting up one file with the right 2
lines; they're there in the sample file that comes with the system.

In general, FreeBSD is just a basic BSD-style UNIX OS for PC platform.
There's a book, The Complete FreeBSD (someone jump in with publishing
info), there's the web page (http://www.freebsd.org) which has a lot of
information, including the Handbook and a FAQ, and information on how to
install and what the involves.
