I don't understand the concept of userland? (Userland vs ???)
Throw in "chroot" and "jail" and I'm just completely lost.

Where can I get started on understanding FreeBSD security?

I want to lock down my Apache based webserver properly. 
I don't want to JUST run a script like Bastille, except 
to learn from it. I need the understanding to move forward.

Jeff
