it is incorrect the first time.

good idea, as they appear in the whatis(1) output. So
replace them with the lowercase version of the document
title. While here, do some tiny markup fixes.
eg:
[foo]
...
matches any executable 'foo'
[/usr/bin/foo/]
...
matches any executable under the directory /usr/bin/foo/
Exact matches continue to function as before.

hostname, resolve, tmp, and var scripts. The latter three are new and
were repo copied. These scripts no longer depend on being booted with
and NFS root instead attempt to automaticly create mfs /tmp and /var
volumes if the they are not writable. This behavior can be overridden
in /etc/rc.conf.

thing, but we're ready to move on.
2. Remove the -g default argument in named_flags. It doesn't actually do
what most users think it does, and what most users want it to do is already
accomplished with a proper default group for the bind user, which we have.
Also, the -g knob does something entirely different in BIND 9, which leads
to a lot of needless confusion/aggravation.
3. In the rc.d script, don't bogusly override $command, or $rc_flags. Both
are adequately handled in rc.conf[.local].
4. DO properly override $rc_flags if user has named_chrootdir set.
This may need to be revisited, but should be ok for now.
5. Protect all chrootdir-related bits under that variable, instead of
named_rcng.
There is more work to be done here, especially in the area of BIND 9
compatibility, but this is a start at least.

rate is how fast modems exchange symbols. Bit rate is how many bits
per second the serial port nominally communicates at. Try to use bit
rate consistently where that's what is ment. The default data rate is
now 9600 baud. 300 baud being default pre-dates 4.4-LITE1. Document
that tip doesn't respect the system default rate for a given channel.
Sorry guys, but no ucbvax, kremvax or kgbvax added to the example.

buildworld targets by default, but allow it to be done for all user
targets by introducing a boolean option, named ALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE.
This change is by no means perfect and I don't even want to claim
this to be a solution. It does however address the fact that not
everybody likes to see make(1) rebuilt simply because the regression
test failed for some reason or other, including pilot error. It
therefore serves the purpose of keeping the crowd happy until we
have something better or simply reached a compromise.
The reasons for changing the default behaviour are:
o It avoids a negative, possibly non-intuitive option,
o It's according to POLA and fond of feet,
o Only buildworld is documented to do its best to be
successful at reasonably cost.

use the atmconfig(8) utility instead of route(8) to install those routes.
For this we need a new rc.conf variable natm_static_routes that works
just like static_routes except that the referenced routes use the syntax
of atmconfig(8).

(like hfa_pci).
To use harp(4) the rc variable natm_interfaces must be set to the
list of NATM interfaces to be used for HARP. These interfaces
will be brought up with ifconfig and the harp(4) will be loaded.
To use loadable native HARP drivers atm_load must be set to
the list of drivers to load.

take advantage of the rc.subr(8) glue. They are renamed dhclient_program
and dhclient_flags.
o Rename them in rc.conf(5)
o Rename them in /etc/defaults/rc.conf
o Add the deprecated variables to /etc/rc.subr
o Isolate the use of the 'command' variable to the
NetBSD specific parts in /etc/rc.d/dhclient.
o Now that dhcp_flags has also been renamed it will
be applied properly by rc.subr(8) glue code.
