and RTSOL in sysinstall. If the respective TRY_FOO variable is set to
"YES" then it will be tried without prompting the user.
However, if the TRY_FOO variable is set to "NO" then the user will not
be prompted for a choice. This is the correct behavior, since we want
people to be able to script sysinstall in either case.
However, the default TRY_FOO variable has been "NO" since 1999. This
is incorrect, and when the logic was corrected in tcpip.c this has the
effect of never giving the user a choice to use DHCP or IPv6. The
value should be undefined until it is set by a script or by the user.

post-configuration "Startup" menu. In the event that diskcheckd is
removed, this can easily be trimmed also; in the mean time, it allows
diskcheckd to be easily disabled using our documented management
tool
the name for the moderate security profile is "moderate", not
"medium", so update this one reference to it as "medium".
This is a 4.4-RELEASE MFC candidate.

conservative default, and actually prompt specifically for inetd rather
than handling it as a side effect of the security profile. Update the
help file to reflect this change.
o Rename "Fascist" to "Extreme" in the source code, to match the names
presented to the user.
o Remove portmap and inetd from profile management. Portmap is now
disabled by default, but automatically turned on if a feature requires
it (such as NFS, etc).
This is an MFC candidate for 4.4-RELEASE.

post-install config, reduce the potential confusion from the existence
of both configTTYs and configTtys by renaming configTTYs to
configEtcTtys. While this is not a C naming conflict, it was probably
a poor choice of names on my part.
system installation process. This allows users installing via serial
console to enable serial console login during the installation
process using an un-customized install. The user is not prompted to
modify /etc/ttys during a normal install, but is offered the
opportunity during post-install configuration.
- Introduce configTTYs(), which describes the benefits of editing
/etc/ttys, and asks for confirmation before spawning the editor.
- add configTTYs to the post-install configuration, as well as to
the global configuration index.
by providing the opportunity to edit inetd.conf during the system
installation process. The following modifications were made:
(1) Expand the Anonymous FTP description dialog to indicate that inetd
and ftpd must be enabled before it can be used.
(2) Introduce a new configInetd() pair of dialogs, the first describing
inetd, giving a couple of examples of services that require it, and
hinting at potential risk, then asking the user if they wish to
enable it. The second indicates that inetd.conf must be configured
to enabled specific services, and asks if the user would like to
load inetd.conf into the editor to modify it. Add this
configuration action to the index.
There are some further improvements that might be considered:
(1) Provide a more inetd.conf-specific configuration tool that speaks
inetd.conf(5). However, this is made difficult by the "yet another
configuration format" nature of inetd.conf, as well as its use of
commenting to disable services, rather than an in-syntax way to
disable a service without commenting it out. Submissions here
would probably be welcome.
(2) There's some overlap between settings in the somewhat obtuse
Security Profile mechanism and other settings, including the inetd
setting, and NFS server configuration. As features become
individually tunable, they should probably be removed from the
security profile mechanism. Otherwise, somewhat counter-intuitively,
sysinstall (in practice) queries multiple times whether inetd, nfsd,
etc, should be enabled/disabled. A possible future direction might
be to drive profiles not by degree of paranoia, rather, the set
of services desired. Or simply to remove the Security Profile
mechanism and resort to feature-driven configuration.

Now it's time to have your parade rained on by... the Typhoon!
This commit adds driver support for 3Com 3cR990 10/100 ethernet
adapters based on the Typhoon I and Typhoon II chipsets. This is actually
a port of the OpenBSD driver with many hacks by me.
No Virginia, there isn't any support for the hardware crypto yet. However
there is support for TCP/IP checksum offload and VLANs.
Special thanks go to Jason Wright, Aaron Campbell and Theo de Raadt for
squeezing enough info out of 3Com to get this written, and for doing
most of the hard work.
Manual page is included. Compiled as a module and included in GENERIC.
