Corrected idiom in section about "arpd". Corrected spelling of "front

end" -- it's twp words, not one. Changed square brackets to parentheses;
square brackets should only be used to delimit editorial remarks. Removed
one definite article referring to the plural; "the" implies a single
object. Changed "amount" to "number". In English, an amount refers to
a continuous quantity, while a number refers to discrete objects (like
networking packetts). Added a qualifier in the description of "ip":
the list of commands is not exhaustive. Modified a few program
descriptons to improve consistency of style. Changed QOS and COS
to QoS and CoS after researching these abbreviations on the internet.
"Quality of Service" and "Class of Service" appear, to me, to be the
most common way of writing these phrases.
