The way Secure RPC is set up, the ecb_crypt() routine is expected to
be able to encrypt a buffer of any size up to 8192 bytes. However, the
des_ecb_encrypt() routine in libdes only encrypts 8 bytes (64 bits) at a
time. The rpc_enc.c module should compensate for this by calling
des_ecb_encrypt() repeatedly until it has encrypted the entire supplied
buffer, but it does not do this.
As a workaround, keyserv now handles this itself: if we're using DES
encryption, and the caller requested ECB mode, keyserv will do the right
thing.
Also changed all references to 'rc4' into 'arcfour' just in case some
litigious bastard from RSA is watching.
Note that I discovered and fixed this problem while trying to get
a part of NIS+ working: rpc.nisd signs directory objects with a 16-byte
MD5 digest that is encrypted with ecb_crypt(). Previously, only the
first 8 bytes of the digest were being properly encrypted, which caused
the Sun nis_cachemgr to reject the signatures as invalid. I failed to
notice this before since Secure RPC usually never has to encrypt more
than 8 bytes of data during normal operations.

Also remove extraneous setuid(0) - it's only undone by
the subsequent call to SelectSystem().
o Allow "set var" with no args to blank var (don't req "").
o Zero VarTerm ASAP if not in interactive mode.
o Never print anything to stdout in -direct mode.
o Count redial when failing to open modem.
o Increase device size to 40 characters (for host:port).
o Remove missed "if (fd == 0) fd = 1;".
o Don't give up on incoming non-terminal connections.
o Use syslog
o Remove references to stdout/stderr (incl perror())
o Introduce VarTerm - the interactive terminal or zero
o Allow "set timeout" to affect current session
o Change "set debug" to "set log"
o Allow "set log [+|-]flag"
o Make MSEXT and PASSWDAUTH stuff the default
o Move all #ifdef DEBUG stuff into the code - this
shouldn't be too much overhead. It's now controlled
with "set log +debug"
o Add "set log command, debug, tun, warn, error, alert"
o Remove cdefs.h, and assume an ansi compiler.
o Improve all diagnostic output
o Don't trap SIGSEGV
o SIGHUP now terminates again (log files are controlled
by syslog)
o Call CloseModem() when changing devices
o Fix parsing of third arg of "delete"
I think this fixes the "magic is same" problems that some
people have been experiencing.
The man page is being rewritten. It'll follow soon.
will break compilation if DESTDIR is not set. The update.c module is
actually from the Sun RPC distribution so this is really their bogon, but
I should have noticed it when I integrated the code into rpc.ypupdated.

received and after the TerminateAck is sent (as
per rfc1661) rather than to ST_STOPPING. Going
to ST_STOPPING will leave us in a state where
we're waiting for the other side to do something -
not a good idea, especially as the client side sends
a TerminateReq then exits on idle timeout.
