There are now six additional variables
weekly_status_security_enable
weekly_status_security_inline
weekly_status_security_output
monthly_status_security_enable
monthly_status_security_inline
monthly_status_security_output
alongside their existing daily counterparts. They all have the same
default values.
All other "daily_status_security_${scriptname}_${whatever}"
variables have been renamed to "security_status_${name}_${whatever}".
A compatibility shim has been introduced for the old variable names,
which we will be able to remove in 11.0-RELEASE.
"security_status_${name}_enable" is still a boolean but a new
"security_status_${name}_period" allows to define the period of
each script. The value is one of "daily" (the default for backward
compatibility), "weekly", "monthly" and "NO".
Note that when the security periodic scripts are run directly from
crontab(5) (as opposed to being called by daily or weekly periodic
scripts), they will run unless the test is explicitely disabled with a
"NO", either for in the "_enable" or the "_period" variable.
When the security output is not inlined, the mail subject has been
changed from "$host $arg run output" to "$host $arg $period run output".
For instance:
myfbsd security run output -> myfbsd security daily run output
I don't think this is considered as a stable API, but feel free to
correct me if I'm wrong.
Finally, I will rearrange periodic.conf(5) and default/periodic.conf
to put the security options in their own section. I left them in
place for this commit to make reviewing easier.

forced to 3 so that the output of this script is always displayed.
In fact, setting this flag is identical to setting
daily_status_security_output to an empty string. To make the logic
less confusing, change the behavior of daily_status_security_inline
such that it just forces daily_status_security_output to an empty
string and then applies the normal logic.

only 1 old file to be saved, so fix this. Problem raised in the PR,
but actually required a different solution.
While I'm here, fix a very old off-by-one error causing 1 more file
than specified in daily_accounting_save to be saved because acct.0
was not taken into account (pun intended). Change that, and use a more
thorough method of finding old files to delete. Partly just because this
is the right thing to do, but also to silently fix the extra log that
would have been left behind forever with the previous method.

This knob removes the tools that are exclusively used to view and
maintain the databases maintained by utmpx, namely last, users, who,
wtmpcvt, ac, lastlogin and utxrm.
The tool w is not in this list, because it has some other functionality
which is unrelated to utmpx; it is hardlinked to the uptime tool.
The WITHOUT_ACCT switch is supposed to omit tools related to process
accounting, namely accton and sa. ac(8) is just a simple tool that
prints statistics based on data in the utx.log database. It has nothing
to do with the former.
to avoid causing errors in the shell script.

This commit changes the return code for the non-inline case to tell that
this message is not important enough and can be masked if necessary. The
messages from the security checks themself are not affected by this and
show up as before in the periodic security email/file.
The inline case still requests to not mask the output, as with the current
way of handling this there is no easy way to handle this.

The old version had a race between the time that the old file was
cp'ed to acct.0 and the time that 'sa -s' was run that prevented
the commands that occurred in the meantime from being backed up.
It's also arguable that the old version was inefficient in using
cp which can be a problem on a space-constrained system.
This version avoids both problems, albeit it's considerably more
complicated. The advantage of putting the log rotation in the rc.d
script is that it can handle the _enable and _file questions without
having to do gymnastics to discover either value in the periodic script.
As a side effect of reviewing the rc.d script I cleaned it up a bit.
zpool the output causes the script to bail out with syntax errors.
Since a scrub of a faulted zpool is pointless, just skip over any pools
marked as such.

The format is intentionally simple and concise.
That information is particularly useful on servers that
are maintained by multiple administrators. When someone
adds, updates or deletes a package, the others will see
it in the daily periodic output.

Features:
- configurable amount of days between scrubs (default value or per pool)
- do not scrub directly after pool creation (respects the configured
number of days between scrubs)
- do not scrub if a scrub is in progress
- tells how to see the status of the scrub
- tells how many days since the last scrub if it skips the scrubbing
- warns if a non-existent pool is specified explicitely
(default: no pools specified -> all currently imported pools are
handled)
- runs late in the periodic run to not slow down the other periodic daily
scripts

and from dump(8) when setfsent(3) fails due to /etc/fstab not existing:
DUMP: Can't open /etc/fstab for dump table information: No such...
This makes daily and security periodic runs somewhat cleaner in jails
which lack /etc/fstab files.

and -delete (which implies depth-first traversal), avoid using -delete in
favour of -execdir.
This has a side-effect of not removing directories that contain files,
even if we delete all of those files, but IMHO that's a better option
than specifying all possible local filesystem types in this script.
