Add the much-needed and long-desired ability to force the log rotation

- Finish migrating zic to its own private.h.
- Fix zic.8 so that it really is written in -mdoc.
- Add four new flags to zic (&document):
-D don't create directories
-u change ownership of newly-created files to user
-g change ownership of newly-created files to group
-m change mode of newly-created files to modespec
These, once proven, can be used to clean up the installation.

The remote option allows for automatic package fetching and installation
using the package repository found on wcarchive. Naturally, this site
can be overridden with a enviornment variable.
This code uses getobjformat() and getosreldate(). This means when some event
causes the package to be fetched to change (such as e-day) the logic also
needs to be changed.

For now, the only board that I know of that uses this chip is the
Alfa Inc. GFC2204. (Its predecessor, the GFC2202, was a DEC tulip card.)
Thanks again to Ulf for obtaining the board for me. If anyone runs
across another, please feel free to update the man page and/or the
release notes. (The same applies for the other drivers.)
FreeBSD should now have support for all of the DEC tulip workalike
chipsets currently on the market (Macronix, Lite-On, Winbond, ASIX).
And unless I'm mistaken, it should also have support for all PCI fast
ethernet chipsets in general (except maybe the SMC FEAST chip, which
nobody seems to ever use, including SMC). Now if only we could convince
3Com, Intel or whoever to cough up some documentation for gigabit
ethernet hardware.
Also updated RELNOTEX.TXT to mention that the SVEC PN102TX is supported
by the Macronix driver (assuming you actually have an SVEC PN102TX with
a Macronix chip on it; I tried to order a PN102TX once and got a box

ISDN4BSD is the work of our brand-new comitter: Hellmuth Michaelis,
who has done a tremendous amount of work to bring us this far.
There are still some outstanding issues and files to bring into
the tree, and for now it will be needed to pick up all the extra
docs from the isdn4bsd release.
It is probably also a very good idea to subscribe to the isdn@freebsd.org
mailing list before you try this out.
These files correspond to release "beta Version 0.70.00 / December
1998" from Hellmuth.
to see if there's anything to do, schedule the next alarm
based on the next required timeout.
This decreases the load when there are lots of relatively
idle ppp processes.
While I'm in there, handle the possibility that a timeout
makes the timer element go out of scope by grabbing the
enext pointer before executing the timer function.
Prevent cron from going crazy if the time steps. For example, if you
have a system with hundreds of users and lots of different crontabs
and your time steps back an hour, the old cron would then attempt to
run an hours worth of cron jobs in a few seconds.
Have pwd_mkdb lock the source file while rebuilding the database. When
called by programs such as vipw, the source file is a temporary file and
this does not conflict with the lock on /etc/master.passwd already held
by vipw. When run manually, however, master.passwd is typically specified
as the argument and the locking prevents other programs from messing with
master.passwd during the database rebuild.
Also pwd_mkdb uses a blocking exclusive lock as it may be called from
a script. The -N option was added to cause pwd_mkdb to get the lock
non-blocking and exit with an error if the attempt fails, again useful
for scripts.
Remove any dial timer that might be hanging around at

If anyone presents a reasonable case for printing out something other than

tun0: flags=blah
10.0.0.1 -> 10.0.0.100
10.0.0.2 -> 10.0.0.100
10.0.0.3 -> 10.0.0.100
to DTRT, despite the SIOCAIFADDR for each new alias returning
-1 & EEXIST while adding the alias anyway. In real life, once
we have the second alias with the same destination, nothing will
route any more ! Also, because I was ignoring EEXIST, the
dynamic IP assignment code was assigning duplicate addresses
('cos it was being lied to by iface_inAdd()).
Now we have
tun0: flags=blah
10.0.0.1 -> 255.255.255.255
10.0.0.2 -> 10.0.0.100
10.0.0.3 -> 255.255.255.255
This works - stuff bound to 10.1 & 10.3 will be considered alive
by the kernel, and when they route back to the tun device, the
packets get aliased to 10.2 and go out to 10.100 (as with the
original plan).
We still see the EEXIST in SIOCAIFADDR, but ignore it when our
destination is 255.255.255.255, assuming that the alias *was*
actually added.
Additionally, ``iface add'' may now optionally be given only
the interface address. The mask & destination default to
255.255.255.255.

demand-dial links with dynamic IP numbers where the program
that causes the dial bind()s to an interface address that is
subsequently changed after ppp negotiation.
The problem is defeated by adding negotiated addresses to the
tun interface as additional alias addresses and providing a set
of ``iface'' commands for managing the interface. Libalias is
also required (and what a name clash!) - it happily IP-aliases
the address so that the source is that of the primary (negotiated)
interface and un-IP-aliases it on the way back.
An ``enable iface-alias'' is done implicitly by the -alias command
line switch. If -alias isn't given, iface-aliasing is disabled by
default and can't be enabled 'till an ``alias enable yes'' is done.
``alias enable no'' silently disables iface-alias.
So, for dynamic-IP-type-connections, running ``ppp -alias -auto blah''
will work for the first connection, although existing bindings will
not survive a disconnect/connect as the TCP peer will be trying to
send to the old IP address - the packets won't route.
It's now a lot easier to add IPXCP to ppp with minor updates to
the new iface.[ch] (if anyone ever gets 'round to it).
It's also now possible to manually add interface aliases with
something like ``iface add 1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8''. This allows
multi-homed ppp links :-)
