  ********************************************************************
  Unless this file already existed, a sample configuration file
  has been placed in /usr/local/etc/munin/munin-node.conf.
  
  Please edit it according to your needs.
  
  ********************************************************************
  
  The Munin client will *not* be started automatically. To allow it
  to start, put this line in /etc/rc.conf:
  
  munin_node_enable="YES"
  
  Then, it will be started on the next boot. If this line is already
  present, the client will be started now.  Otherwise, edit
  /etc/rc.conf and execute this command:
  
      /usr/local/etc/rc.d/munin-node start
  ********************************************************************

Then /usr/local/etc/munin/munin-node.conf was edited and the following was added:

allow ^81\.95\.52\.78$

And then the following was added to /etc/rc.conf:

munin_node_enable="YES"

And then it was started:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/munin-node start

pecl-uploadprogress

This message in the Drupal admin interface indicated that PECL uploadprogress needed to be installed:

Your server is capable of displaying file upload progress through APC, but it is not enabled. Add apc.rfc1867 = 1 to your php.ini configuration. Alternatively, it is recommended to use PECL uploadprogress, which supports more than one simultaneous upload.

So:

cd /usr/ports/devel/pecl-uploadprogress
make config
  ===> No options to configure
  ****************************************************************************
  
  The following line has been added to your /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini
  configuration file to automatically load the installed extension:
  
  extension=uploadprogress.so
