	FreeBSD 4.7 and 5.0-CURRENT documentation, FreeBSD handbook online
>Description:
	gated is now commercial software and is no longer available from the ports system.  However, the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/docs/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/routing.html) and the rtquery man page both make references to it, saying that gated would be more suitable in more complex environments. These should probably be either removed or changed to suggest a routing package such as zebra which is in the ports system
>How-To-Repeat:
	read the FreeBSD handbook or 'man rtquery'
>Fix:

	change or remove references to gated in the documentation


>Release-Note:
>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
