Add a warning regarding localhost-only listening daemons inside jails.
Apparently binding only to 127.0.0.1 inside of a jail actually binds to the jail IP address as well (in effect, bind to all available interfaces in the jail). Submitted by: Helge Oldach <test-smtp@oldach.net> MFC after: 1 day pending RE approval
