>Description:
The sed script in /etc/rc.local that builds the host/kernel ID line
for the message of the day relies on the year not going past 1999.
When the year passes 1999, the ID line is malformed.

find two users with the same UID (i.e. root and toor), but yp_mkdb(8)
forbits duplicate keys, so only one of them will end up in the *.byuid
maps (probably toor, since it comes after root in the template file).
If I asked rpc.yppasswdd(8) to change toor's password, it would update
the *.byname maps correctly, but incorrectly modify root's entry in
the *.byuid maps since the only matching record with UID=0 in those
maps belongs to root.
To fix this, we check that both the name and UID are correct before trying
to write new entries to the maps.

TRANSITIONALLY make syslog add a symlink..
I PROMISE I'll remove that as soon as I have the makefiles etc fixed as well.
1) Rename FNM_ICASE to FNM_CASEFOLD
2) Add FNM_LEADING_DIR
Add proper (unsigned char) casts to tolower().
Use 'char' function argument for proper sign extension
the callback is a fatal error for this function; return immediatlely if
this happens. Also make the "failed to establish callback handle" error
mesaage print the IP address of the target callback host.
after I installed the last SNAP :). Because of the way the 'use NIS
or local?' logic is set up here, it was possible to force the use
of the NIS password changer even though the specified user didn't exist
in NIS (i.e. # passwd foo, where foo is a local-only user). In this
case, we fall intp yp_passwd() without the corresponding yp_password
structure being filled in, which leads to an NULL pointer dereference.
Also fixed the logic like I just did with chpass so that if the user
is both in NIS and the local password database, the program makes a
more sensible guess as to which one to use (if NIS is turned on in
/etc/master.passwd, then use NIS, else default to local).
enabled in /etc/master.passwd & friends. This allows the 'USER_YP_AND_LOCAL'
case to make a more sensible guess (if NIS is enabled, default to NIS,
otherwise default to local -- this is better than defaulting to NIS
all the time).

Also, document and place in an opt_ file the #define's for overriding which
serial port is the system console.

unique utmp slots as a result. This isn't a critical problem

When an rsh is denied by rshd because the client is lacking appropriate
.rhosts permission, an error message is formatted for syslog which contains
the client's hostname. The hostname portion of the message relies on a pointer
to a field within gethostbyname()'s internal struct hostent which changes state
between when the pointer is initialized and when it is dereferenced to create th
e
message.
