log_in_vain:
log_in_vain turns on logging for packets to ports for which
there is no listener.
rc.sysctl:
A generic way to set sysctl values. It reads /etc/syslog.conf
and sets values based on that. No /etc/syslog.conf has been
checked in yet, and I've not added this to the makefile yet
until I get more feedback.

This is closely tied to Hellmuth's impending rc patches for ISDN, but
sppp can also be used separately (thus it doesn't go directly into the
planned ISDN section of rc.conf).

against the "master map" to get the list of mount point/amd map
correspondences, and using that list as command-line arguments to start
amd.
When I tried to do this with the existing /etc/rc* scripts, I found that
I couldn't do this by modifying only /etc/rc.conf: that file gets
sourced very early by /etc/rc, well before any networking functionality
is present, let alone NIS. Further, I wasn't able to figure out a way
to use various levels & types of quoting to defer evaluation of the
string to a point subsequent to NIS initialization.
As a result, I resorted to hacking /etc/rc.network -- but I did it in a
way that ought to be reasonably general, and avoid breakage for anyone
else.
