Make sysinstall override this on install, so the effective behavioural
change for a newly installed system is null. Overall, this makes a system
with an empty /etc/rc.conf not run any network services, and makes the
FreeBSD-provided network services that are running visible in /etc/rc.conf
(instead of making people look through /etc/defaults/rc.conf to find the
things they need to disable to secure the system.)

Add hints towards login.conf(5), which should be the preferred way

build process in too many cases. Adding mtree to bootstrap-tools
to solve this breaks the upgrade path because mtree needs a
libc that has strtofflags and fflagstostr.
The tap driver is used to present a virtual Ethernet interface to the
system. Packets presented by the network stack to the interface are
made available to a character device in /dev. With tap and the bridge
code, you can make remote bridge configurations where both sides of
the bridge are separated by userland daemons.
This driver also has a special naming hack to allow it to serve a similar
purpose to the vmware port.

NOTE - this has no hope of working if you halt(); you need to
execute rc.shutdown to get the entropy stash.
- Remove unit numbers in config lines.
- Remove all of logger lines and add logstr lines for some cards. This
changes reduced file size from 84k to 45k.
- Use '/sbin/ifconfig $device delete' instead of /etc/pccard_ether_remove

- Cosmetic changes.
MAKE_foo for things like MAKE_KERBEROS etc. Use that. I managed to
confuse myself last time and made make.conf different to the code. ;-(

wheel to trash logfiles is not exactly good security policy. There have
been several gid wheel holes in ports. Various other files were changed
as well (eg: the locate database were set to more restrictive modes (444)
by their generation scripts) so this should be safe for them. utmp and
wtmp are mode 644 already on all the systems we checked.

Seems to work great in the type II cf<->pccard adapter that came with
the card. Others have reported with different chipsets for the pccard
bridge that additional support is needed to make this card work with
the 3.3 volts it needs.
o The Shining PMIDE-ASC card is also used in Road Warrior's Bullet Drive, so
add that to the comments.
o Eiger Lab's fujitsu based ethernet card: EPX-10BT (thanks to Ryan Losh for
donating the card to the cause).
o Add place holder entry for the 3Com Megahertz 3CXEM556. It doesn't work
yet, but that will change in time.
I've seen some script kiddie tools out there that fake the timestamps
but don't preserve the inode number.
Note - this will cause a lot of output the first time it is run!
