SRA does a Diffie-Hellmen exchange and then DES-encrypts the
authentication data. If the authentication is successful, it also
sets up a session key for DES encryption.
SRA was originally developed at Texas A&M University.
This code is probably export restricted (despite the fact that I
originally found it at a University in Germany).
SRA is not perfect. It is vulnerable to monkey-in-the-middle attacks
and does not use tremendously large DH constants (and thus an individual
exchange probably could be factored in a few days on modern CPU
horsepower). It does not, however, require any changes in user or
administrative behavior and foils session hijacking and sniffing.
The goal of this commit is that telnet and telnetd end up in the DES
distribution and that therefore an encrypted session telnet becomes
standard issue for FreeBSD.
with version 1.25.
Bison 1.28 fixed a bug in the initialization of the `undefined' symbol
table entry. Unfortunately something about the way we are compiling
egcs-1.1.2's cc1plus breaks with this bugfix.
"--broken-undeftoken-init" is needed when compiling cc1plus. Otherwise
/usr/libexec/cc1plus cannot compile libgcc.
This prevents any background sub-command executed from inheriting
the descriptor & lock (and making vi think that someone else is
editing the file when it re-edits).
Remembered from: An OpenBSD commit message from May '99
with options.c which was fixed in ISC's version 2.0 (rev 1.1.1.2 --> 1.1.1.3).
I have tested host-name with both types `X' and `t' and things work fine
either way. I would prefer to match the offical sources when easily possible.

when linking large shared libraries where the linker missed out some of
the dynamic relocations from the output. This prevents libqt from linking
properly among other packages.

Our malloc can allocte pagesized blocks efficiently and the EGCS default size
of 4072 bytes is not optimal.

Most of the text was take from the fsinfo section in info(1).
Also included a pointer to that information, since there is
so much detail about the format of the configuration files there.
lockmgr locks. This commit should be functionally equivalent to the old
semantics. That is, all buffer locking is done with LK_EXCLUSIVE
requests. Changes to take advantage of LK_SHARED and LK_RECURSIVE will
be done in future commits.
