7061ab237b Fix a bug that's survived since rev 1.1: 
Don't mark the word "file" up as a pathname in "/etc/group file".  For
the sake of consistency with rev 1.18, use Nm instead of "Pa /etc/group"
and break "file" onto the next line.

* Hard sentence break.

* Using Nm for the file in the first paragraph made the use of Pa in the
  second paragraph look silly.

9ed55d1192 Another overhaul of the periodic stuff. 
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).

248aee623c Add nsswitch support. By creating an /etc/nsswitch.conf file, you can 
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.
