PAM modules. rlogind calls login(1) which is already PAM enabled.

the appropriate documentation added to rc.conf(5). If all goes well
with this over the next few weeks, the PR will be closed with the
pullup of patches back to 4-STABLE.

it's traditionally been vulnerable to a variety of attacks; anybody
remember RTFM and his worm?
PC-card stuff. Also print a NEWLINE (!!) after that.
I'm driving mad each time when I see messages related to pccard before
"Enable PC-card." and particulary when I see
"Doing initial network setup". on the same line w/o a break.
make_dev() call.
At the moment, it is an error for anyone but root to write to this
device (EPERM), and the permissions don't suggest that. Soon, however,
anyone will be able to write here, but only root will cause an implicit
reseed.
All periodic sub-scripts <larf> now have their return codes interpreted
by periodic(8). Output may be masked based on variable values in
periodic.conf.
It's also now possible to email periodic output to arbitrary addresses,
or to send it to a log file, examples of which can be found in
newsyslog.conf.
The upshot of it all should be no discernable changes to the default
behaviour of periodic(8).

Now that the RSA algorithm is released into the public domain, build
librsaintl by default unless NO_RSAINTL is set in make.conf.
The native OpenSSL implementation of RSA is much faster, doesn't have
an artificial keysize limitation, has 30% fewer calories and tastes great!
configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.
= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).
= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).
= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr
= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.
