Emacs-style line editing has already been there (did anybody ever
notice this? :), so i `only' had to add ^P and ^N. The approach is
fairly minimalistic, with the advantage of keeping the bloat as small
as 864 bytes of .text and 16 bytes of .bss, plus 10*120 bytes
malloc'ed history buffer at the first use.
possibility of a security hole. It now does what rdist-6 does, and calls
/usr/bin/rsh if not running as root. There are NO protocol changes, this
is 100% compatable with the old rdist, except that it does not need setuid
root privs.
However, there are some minor differences to the base rdist-6 code in that
if it is being run by root, it will call rcmd(3) directly rather than
piping everything through rsh(1). This is a little more efficient as it
doesn't involve context switching on pipe reads/writes.
Also, the -P option was added from rdist-6.1.2, which allows an alternative
rsh program to be specified, such as ssh. Note that it requires the fixes
to the ssh port to disable the unconditional USE_PIPES option that was
recently added. The rcmd(3) optimisation is disabled if a non-rsh program
is speficied.
nearest .01 Mhz rather than simply truncating it downwards.
This hack makes this 89.999928 Mhz clock correctly round to the closer
90.00-MHz rather than 89.99-MHz:
> i586 clock: 89999928 Hz, i8254 clock: 1193152 Hz
> CPU: Pentium (90.00-MHz 586-class CPU)
allow a tunnel interface to be openned even if it has no remote address yet.
this may be needed if you have used
route add default -interface tun0
where the remote end might not even HAVE a number (e.g. netcom links)

This patch allows true interface routing to be controlled
from the command line..
you can now do:
route add default -interface ppp0
even if you have no clue what the address at the other end is..
this is part of a set of changes that allow true "unnumbered links"
such as netcom run between their sites..
In practice you should assign the address from one of your ethernet
interfaces to the local side of the P2P link so that IP doesn't
say that the packet comes from 255.255.255.255, but
there is no need whatsoever to assign an address of any kind
to the remote end of the link.. useful for frame relay links etc also.

for bootstrap" tweak to the lex Makefile to stop it building the library
too early.
This untangles things a bit more, it stops new bootstraps failing because
libl/libfl uses 'ld -O' before ld is updated.
This is a patch to sys/net/if.c. What it does is patch the algorithm
for finding an IP address on an interface which most closely matches
a given IP address. The problem with it is when no address matches,
and you have to just pick one at random. Then the code ends up picking
the last IP address in the list. This patch changes things so it
picks up the first address instead.
Usually the first address is more useful as the later ones are aliases.

This man page needs to be gone over to fully convert it to mdoc format.
This closes PR#1440.
