Changes to allow inted to control the number of servers to
start on each service. This is a defence against a denial of service attack
in which the system is made unusable by
an external party. It also allows the behaviour of
small memory systems to be more accuratly predicted, by
bounding the extent to which processes can multiply.
This allows the user to add modify syscons's configuration flags using
UserConfig that will allow older/quirky hardware (most notably older IBM
ThinkPad laptops) to work with the standard boot kernel.

if kerberos is installed. So far as I'm aware, kerberos aware clients
detect ECONNREFUSED and (if allowed) fall back to the non-kerberos
servers. They do not know how to interpret messages such as
"rlogind: unknown option -k".
I believe Garrett also mentioned this.
Unfortunately, this adds an extra step to bringing up kerberos.
It also stops /var/log/messages getting quite so many useless (and
confusing) error messages when somebody does a port scan on you.
dealing w/the fixit floppy.
Also added the MNT_RELOAD, MNT_WANTRDWR, MNT_ASYNC, MNT_NOATIME,
MOUNT_UNION flags. Someone might want to check my description of MNT_RELOAD.
2.2-R candidate. Not a 2.1.6-R candidate -- some current flags aren't in
2.1.5-R's version.
the main menu.
2. Conditionalized a few small things which needed it.
3. Put PC98 X servers in their own menu, there are so many of them now.
4. Rampaged on the menus.c file in general, reformatting and cleaning up.
Not all mappings are supported, most languages come only with one
encoding since this should be sufficient to get up & running in using
sysinstall, and we are already pretty tight on space. (My previous
commit has already bumped the boot MFS size by another 50 KB for
this.)
This feature requires the `kbdcontrol -L' i've just committed. Plain
text keymaps and the entire scanner are overkill for sysinstall.
Also updated the list of available keymaps while i was at it.

. Don't gzip the crunched binary by now; it just fits, and execution is
a lot faster this way (it's truly demand-paged again).
. Add more(1), ft(8), protocols(5), a stripped down services(5).
. Improve the .profile, and make sysinstall actually use it again.
Still no go for a 4 MB configuration though. :-(
but make a second attempt using MNT_FORCE, just in case it has been
unclean from a previous crash. That's dangerous, but far better than
keeping the despaired user standing in the rain...
(Experienced admins can still fsck it then, and remount. Others will
either totally crash, or incidentally succeed, without much further
help possible...)
Btw., mount(2) misses the description of MNT_FORCE for the mount
syscall.
directories to a different parent directory always failed. This bug
was caused by 4.4Lite2 changing the directory format and ext2fs not
keeping up.
Should be in 2.2.
This follows more closely the suggestions in the latest NCR docs, and has
been running on my system for weeks with no problem. It does improve the
quality of diagnostic messages and does allow to better understand the
sequence of events in case of an error.
This should go into 2.2 and 2.1.6.
This fixes several bugs and one missing feature:
- cluster_read() was needlessly used for reading files of size exactly 1
block.
- EFAULT errors for read didn't terminate the loop. This was probably
harmless.
- IO_VMIO handling was missing near line 275. I don't know what this does.
- B_CLUSTEROK was only set if (doclusterwrite) nead line 293. This was
harmless, if only because another bug prevents doclusterwrite from being
0.
- MNT_NOATIME wasn't implemented.
This should be in 2.2, of course.

won't be run for non-Pentium CPUs anyway.
2.2 candidate, this code has been tested for almost half year in -current.
that is stored in the hints file. If that search path contained
a non-existent directory (one, say, that had been removed), and
"ldconfig -m /a/perfectly/good/directory" was run, ldconfig returned
an error status without printing an error message. This caused
some confusing bombs when installing ports, in particular.
I changed it so that non-existent directories from the stored search
path are silently ignored. Only non-existent directories named
explicitly on the command line are treated as errors. Also, a
diagnostic is printed if and only if an error status is returned.
In an unrelated fix, ldconfig now silently ignores any directories
named on the command line when the "-r" option is given. Formerly,
these directories incorrectly made their way into the "search
directories" line of the listing. It really should be an error to
specify directories together with "-r", but I don't have time to
fix the manual page in that way right now.
2.2 Candidate.
for NULL RPC client handles. This should hopefully fix the problems
Satoshi reported on -current.
- Add socket descriptor sanity checks to _yp_unbind().
- Fix yp_order() so that it handles the RPC_PROCUNAVAIL error gracefully.
NIS+ in YP compat mode doesn't support the YPPROC_ORDER procedure.
This is a 2.2 candidate with bells on.
