25219d25e6 Add a new make knob, SENDMAIL_MC, which is meant to replace SENDMAIL_CF as
users should be configuring via m4 now.  If set, use m4 to create the .cf
file.  Also, if either SENDMAIL_MC or SENDMAIL_CF is set, 'make install' or
'make distribution' in src/etc/sendmail/ will install the appropriate .cf as
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf.  This fixes some mergemaster problems.

6edba32695 Move the sendmail -q from cron to periodic, as suggested by a few people.
This has the benefit of adding a random start time element as daily
processing takes a different amount of time on different machines.

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.

be built and installed by doing:

# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/xntpd/util
# make all install

There are enough references to tickadj in e.g. the xntpd documentation
(not to mention the sysctl variables it uses etc.) that I don't feel
up to implementing the final solution right now.

    The patch supports using the X10 Mouse Remote in both stand-alone and
pass-through configurations, so you can plug your mouse and remote into the
same serial port, use the mouse for X, and use the remote for other apps
like Fxtv. For instance, we can now control fxtv via the remote control
just like a TV : change channels, mute, increase volume, zoom video,
freeze frame 8)

     The mouse events are channeled through the syscons/sysmouse I/F like
normal, and the remote buttons are "syphoned off" to a UNIX-domain stream
socket (defined as _PATH_MOUSEREMOTE in <machine/mouse.h>) for a
remote-aware app to grab and use.

For further info on the X10 Mouse Remote see:

401caa1438 Fixed wrong #include in synopsis. <sys/dir.h> has been deprecated for
years.

Not fixed: stale, misformatted copy of <dirent.h>.  I will be cleaning
up the dirent.h and dir.h headers soon (ufs stuff needs to be separated
better), so don't change the man page yet.

f57cc79d87 Improve the wording of the section on comments in the group and passwd
files.  Also mention that this feature is not enabled by default
and that they must be enabled by compile-time options.

Fixed another typo or two I noticed while I was at it.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

96b2533ed1 Bump maximum username length to 16 characters. This brings us into
line with BSD/OS and Linux's username limits, making transitioning from
either operating system a lot easier than it is now.  I'm currently
running with this change on my system, as are several others, and have
experienced no ill effects.

This is not for 2.2!  This needs to get shaken out longer term in 3.0.
