before the rest of the system daemons are brought up and *after* the
network interfaces have been configured.
Also fix one other potential problem: the NIS services need to be started
relavively early since some of the other daemons might need them. The
automounter is a good example: if you use amd with NIS-based maps, you'd
better have NIS running before you start it. :) I think mountd might
need it too, now that netgroups can be read via NIS as well.
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.)
1. Move all system configuration variables into /etc/sysconfig
2. Adapt other files to use it.
3. Add a host of new variables for micro-managing your system in various
ways. For 2.1, /etc/sysconfig will be machine-edited so that the user
doesn't even have to care at all about the various funny names we picked.
4. Enable dset. We won't get it debugged if we never use it, and no one
has said anything negative about it yet, so here goes!
5. Try to use one consistent style throughout.
- Do ntp right
- Move recenrly-added and long-standing junk from rc.local into rc, so
. that rc.local truly is LOCAL.
- Fix named invocation to use the correct boot file location.
Fixed the MAKEDEV pattern for SCSI processor type driver so it doesn't
screw up ptys. Does anyone want to suggest a better name than "pt0" for
SCSI processor devices before 2.1?
Support sliced devices better. E.g.:
`sh MAKEDEV sd0' creates [r]sd0 and [r]sd0s[1-4] as well as [r]sd0[a-h]
(the extra devices created by default won't hurt apart from wasting inodes).
`sh MAKEDEV sd0s1[a-h]' creates [r]sd0s1[a-h] (any partition creates all).
`sh MAKEDEV sd0s5' creates [r]sd0s5.
Support unit numbers 0-31 (was 0-6).
For wd:
Remove support for creating DOSpartitions wd*[i-m]. These will get removed
if you run MAKEDEV on `all' or on wd*.
o Supporting SYNC SIO device (But need a device driver)
- add "set speed sync"
o Fixing bug for Predictor-1 function.
o Add new parameter that re-sent interval for set timeout commands.
o Improving RTT (Round Trip Time) and reducing processor time.
- Previous Timer service was using polling, and now using
SIGALRM ;-)
- A 0.94beta2 will not work correctly....
-- Follows are additinal feature not including 0.94beta2
o Support Proxy ARP
- add "enable/disable proxy" commands
o Marging common routine in CHAP/PAP.
o Enhancing LCP/IPCP log information.
o Support local Authfication connection on port 300x and tty.
- You can set up pair of your "hostname -s" and
password in ppp.secret. if either ppp.secret file nor
your hostname line don't exist, It will notify a message
and working as same as previous version.(Backword compatibility)
- If you did set up them, It's allow connection but nothing to do
except help and passwd command.
- add "passwd yourpasswd" commands
o Support afilter - keep Alive filter that a packet can send/receiving
according to ifilter/ofilter but doesn't count it as preventing idle
timer expires.
- Same syntax of other filters.
o Fixing bugs reported by current user for previous one. Thanks !!

chown to root is usually bogus because mknod had to be run by root to
create the inode. Setting the group explictly is currently necessary
because MAKEDEV does nothing to ensure that its working directory has
a suitable group.
Driver authors! Please fix any bogons in MAKEDEV that involve your
drivers. The sound devices are still world writable...
for now (there are too many minors to create by default). The special
sliced disk case ssd*|svn*|swd*) can almost replace the standard disk
case sd*|vn*|wd*) now (it just creates a few more devices), but there
will have to be special cases to allow creating slices 6-31 and partitions
on slices 2-31.
Fix bogus default cases.
Add the `lc' option to default. Having getty understand the issues of
CAPS-only terminals is a nop these days, but `lc' avoids hassles for
people with CAPS-only user names.

weekly:
Modify the call to makewhatis, now that our makewhatis can take the
entire ${MANPATH} as a single argument.
The group was wrong if MAKEDEV was run in a directory with group other
than wheel. This may have messed up the group in recent SNAPs
(sysinstall/obj should have group bin).
Reset the umask to 77 after running MAKEDEV.local. Some cases depend on
the 77 default. MAKEDEV.local and all cases should probably set the
umask explictly and not depend on a default. Most cases already set it.
1) ypserv is started with nis_serverflags, not yppasswddflags (that's what
I get for cutting & pasting without paying attention).
2) ypbind can also be started with arguments, so turn nis_client to
nis_clientflags.
safe way to do this, and envites very unpleasant results. Removed fsck'ing
of all the disks on the system as it provides output that is almost always
meaningless and only envites bug reports.

match all the port names.
Start using shell functions to avoid duplication.
Make tty* independent of cua*. Restore support for old names (tty0 ==
ttyd0, cua0 = cuaa0...).
Restore making of lpt1 and lpt2 by default.
Keep umask 077 for making vty*. World-ioctable vtys are huge security holes
because of bugs in syscons.
Make vga if a vty is made. It may still be required for X. It got nuked
with pc*.
Start using umask consistently to avoid using chmod.
file anymore after this. My link makes it too painful to make
interactive mods, and I don't have the CVS tree here so making changes
for "previous history" have to get done on freefall, with the corresponding
degree of pain.

driver mods for dual-mode DMA will allow VAT compiled for BSD/386 1.1 to

Leave a warning to the sysop if (s)he didn't yet
enable the /tmp cleanup code.
Made `core' in the cleanup template look `*.core'.
Replace `df -k' by `df -k -t local', since the stats
for kernfs, procfs etc. are not of much interest, and
the inclusion of nfs systems might hang the machine (nor is it a
`disk' statistic as the headline's telling).
weekly:
Modified the locate.updatedb part to work even if there's no
database yet; report errors other than `Permission denied' instead
of silently ignoring all of them.
Added functionality to rebuild the whatis database once a week.
