of the SOA 'minimum' field. Now it's necessary to define $TTL seperately
to shut it up. Bind does reasonable things by default but it's annoying
still.

to the comments in named.conf to describe to the user how to create it.
(named.conf does not use /etc/namedb/s by default anyway so us not
pre-created it in the mtree does not hurt us terribly).
Adjust rc.conf to run named in sandbox, adjust mtree to add /etc/namedb/s
subdirectory (user bind, group bind) to hold secondaries, adjust
comments in named.conf to reflect new secondary scheme. (Note that
core read-only zone files are left owned by root, increasing security even
more).
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
The named.root file is out of date.. (well it was.. this fixes it..)

Delete bogus localhost.rev.
Add prototype localhost.rev and a script to create it automatically.
(NB to installl people: you should ask ``do you have a full-time connection
o the Internet?'', run this script, and enable named if the answer is
yes.)
