installed by default, because then everybody would suddenly start
trying to authenticate themselves in the CS.BERKELEY.EDU realm, which
is really not a very good idea. Maybe the README could get installed.
pair of crunched binaries that are not built by this, but other than
that it is back to an automated procedure. So many changes it is
hard to describe.

The last version expected elvis* files in /var/tmp, while elvis puts
elv* files there.
back editor!
Add nvi recovery precedure from man page.
Fix ntpdate echo lines so that it looks pretty (ntpdate spits out 1 line
of output that makes the system boot up look real ugly if you do it
echo -n, so I chaged it to echo, and then added a
echo -n 'starting more network daemons:' so any addition daemon starts
look normal.

Use freefall.cf as sendmail prototype file, it is more realistic than the
tcpproto.cf file for a FreBSD system. Fix so that obj dir is created in
sendmail/cf/cf as to not polute the source tree and to have the Makefile
in there do the right things.
Remove all the extra /dev/fd0?* entries on the floppies, they where using
up all the inodes and are not needed at this time.
Temporarily remove the floppy target from release: untilit is
fixed.
This file has lots more work coming, but to get the 1.1 BETA out I am
going to hand craft the floppies :-(.
Further it implements crontab -e.
I moved cron from /usr/libexec to /usr/sbin where most daemons are
that are run from rc. That also gets rid of the ugly path crond
used to have in ps(1) outputs. Further I renamed it to cron, as
Paul Vixie likes it and is done by NetBSD.
NOTE VERY WELL THE FOLLOWING:
1) Systems crontab changed. Every users crontab resides in /var/cron
*EXCEPT* root's. This is a special crontab as it resides in
/etc. Further it is the *ONLY* crontab file in which you specify
usernames. See /usr/src/etc/crontab. This is also done by BSDI's
BSD/386 as far as I know (they provided the patches for it anyway)
2) So you *must* delete root's crontab and reinstall the copy
in /etc from /usr/src/etc.
'Must' is to much: the old installed crontab will work but cron
will also try to 'run' /etc/crontab.
3) Last but not least: cron's logging is now done via syslog. Note
that logging by cron is done lowercase when it logs about itsself
and uppercase when it logs user events, like installing a new crontab.
The default logfile file is the same as before:
syslog.conf:cron.* /var/cron/log
