at boot (sendmail_enable=NO), a localhost-only daemon may started
(sendmail_submit_enable) as it is needed to accept mail from command line
submissions. If this isn't desired, see etc/mail/README for more hints.
Optionally (sendmail_msp_queue_enable) start a queue runner for the
submission queue in case a daemon isn't available to accept command line
submitted mail at submission time.
Note that the syslog labels for all of these sendmail processes have been
uniquified for easier log parsing.
Try this out in -CURRENT, MFC, and then consider dropping the
'log_in_vain' knob all together. It really is something for
sysctl.conf(5).

list.
This increases the scope for user error and also means that systems with
networkfs_types set in /etc/rc.conf will not benefit from changes to the
list in /etc/defaults/rc.conf on upgrade.
Instead, store the default list in /etc/rc itself and allow the operator
to append to that list by specifying her own list in networkfs_types.
Rename networkfs_types to extra_netfs_types accordingly, as the new name
better describes the purpose of the variable. Default the value to
'NO'.
the network is initialized. This was first implemented in rev 1.268
of src/etc/rc, but was backed out at wollman's request.
The objection was that the right place for the fix is in mount(8).
Having looked at that problem, I find it hard to believe that
the hoops one would have to jump through can be justified by the
desire for purity alone.
Note that there are reported issues surrounding nfsclient kernel
support and mount_nfs(8), which currently make NFS an ugly exception
to the general case.
With this change, systems with non-NFS network filesystems configured
for mounting on startup in /etc/fstab are no longer guaranteed to
fail on startup.

because they break if the linux emulator is loaded as a module, rather

broken into periodic(8) scripts to make local customization easier and
more maintainable.

backwards-compatible, except where device names included globbing

dhclient and pccard_ether, introduce the concept of a "settle time" to
pccard_ether with the new pccard_ether_delay variable. Defaults to 5
seconds, which is enough time for the ed driver to finish its
autoconfiguration for newer Linksys based cards. This also can
eliminate the ed0: timeout messages that happen at startup as well.

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.
Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
