in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
Light blue touch-paper. Run.
- New configuration options: allow workgroups/deny workgroups.
When samba is a local master on subnet these options allow
you to restrict list of available workgroup names in "Network
Neighbourhood". Options accept a list of names.
- New configuration options: allow master/deny masters.
When samba is running as a WINS server these options allow
you to restrict registering of particular IP addresses as
group masters. Options accept same arguments as "allow hosts".
- New configuration option: workgroups.
This allows you to be a member (and thus a master browser!) of
multiple workgroups.
- New configuration option: force local master.
Allows to ignore Windows NT PDC attempts to claim master
browser name on subnet. This is violation of standard, but is
useful.
- All registered NetBIOS names must be isprint().
Do not bump PORTREVISION, because new features show up
only if WITH_BROWSING_HACKS is defined in compile-time.

Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".
For ports-in-waiting:
USE_LIBTOOL=YES -> USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
USE_AUTOCONF=YES -> USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
USE_AUTOMAKE=YES -> USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14
Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.
David has not committed to these ports since 2002/12/15, and there are some
updates pending. This is inline with the new maintainer timeout policy
as speleed out in the Porter's Handbook.
Samba's ./configure will automatically pull in the system popt if
popt is installed when Samba (as port) is compiled, without
registering it as a dependency. This means popt can later be removed
without complaint, but this may break Samba.

The patch was originally created by Gerhard Sittig

This still needs a little work, but at least it works.

Samba Web site:
A flaw has been detected in the Samba main smbd code which could
allow an external attacker to remotely and anonymously gain Super
User (root) privileges on a server running a Samba server. This
flaw exists in previous versions of Samba from 2.0.x to 2.2.7a
inclusive. This is a serious problem and all sites should either
upgrade to Samba 2.2.8 immediately or prohibit access to TCP ports
139 and 445.
I tested this in the same environment as before.
This should be fetchable too.

production-quality, it has corrections for several bugs.

it now takes a config file rather than directly specifying the desired
options. Install a sample recycle.conf.default in LOCALBASE/etc.
