You might also want to add a line like
accept tcp 300 tcp.dest=tcp.wwwuser
and add the service wwwuser with port 8080 to your /etc/services. Often
users run their own web server on port 8080, and you don't want your
connection to time out immediately if you follow a link to such a server.
8080 may have a more official name than "wwwuser". If so, use that name
instead of introducing wwwuser.
