in most cases, except one. The 'restart' case was not working as expected. Specifically,
it would stop both lockd and statd, but it would restart only statd (which appears first
in the script). This is because rc.subr(8) contains code to guard against infinite
recursion in the 'restart' casae.
To fix this use the traditional approach of controlling only one server from one script by
breaking out rc.d/nfslocking into its contituent parts: rc.d/lockd and rc.d/statd. Keep
rc.d/nfslocking around but don't include it in the boot rcorder(8)ing.

3. Add a warning to the commented out "root zone slave" example to the
effect that it requires more attention than a hints file, and provides
more benefit to larger sites than individual hosts.
4. Correct a typo copied from RFC 2544 which was corrected in a later
errata, and confirmed in RFC 3330. Update the comment to reflect that
RFC 3330 got it right and to avoid confusion down the road. 3330 also

appropriate locking is added. Specifics:
- Don't install netatm include files
- Disconnect netatm command line management tools
- Don't build libatm
- Don't include ATM parts in rescue or sysinstall
- Don't install sample configuration files and documents
- Don't build kernel support as a module or in NOTES

Improvements:
* /etc/rc.suspend,rc.resume are always run, no matter the source of the
suspend request (user or kernel, apm or acpi)
* suspend now requires positive user acknowledgement. If a user program
wants to cancel the suspend, they can. If one of the user programs
hangs or doesn't respond within 10 seconds, the system suspends anyway.
* /dev/apm is clonable, allowing multiple listeners for suspend events.
In the future, xorg-server can use this to be informed about suspend
even if there are other listeners (i.e. apmd).
Changes:
* Two new ACPI ioctls: REQSLPSTATE and ACKSLPSTATE. Request begins the
process of suspending by notifying all listeners. acpi is monitored by
devd(8) and /dev/apm listener(s) are also counted. Users register their
approval or disapproval via Ack. If anyone disapproves, suspend is vetoed.
* Old user programs or kernel modules that used SETSLPSTATE continue to
work. A message is printed once that this interface is deprecated.
* acpiconf gains the -k flag to ack the suspend request. This flag is
undocumented on purpose since it's only used by /etc/rc.suspend. It is
not intended to be a permanent change and will be removed once a better
power API is implemented.
* S5 (power off) is no longer supported via acpiconf -s 5 or apm -z/-Z.
This restores previous behavior of halt/shutdown -p being the interface.
* Miscellaneous improvements to error reporting

best practices:
1. The old way of generating the localhost zones was not optimal both
because they did not exist by default, and because they were not really
aligned with BCP. There is no need to have the dynamic data that the
make-localhost script generated, and good reasons to do this more
"by the book."
2. In named.conf
a. Clean up white space
b. Add/clarify a few comments
c. Slave zones from the root servers instead of using a hints
file. This has several advantages, as described in the comments.
d. Significantly revamp the default zones, including the
forward localhost zone, and the reverse zones for IPv4 and IPv6
loopback addresses. There are extensive comments describing what
is included and why. Interested readers should take the time to
review the RFCs mentioned in the comments. There is also relevant
information about the motivations for hosting these zones in the
"work in progress" Internet-Draft,
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsop-default-local-zones-02.txt
or its successor.
It's also worth noting that a significant number of these
empty zones are already included by default in the named binary
without any user configuration.
e. Because we're including a lot of examples of both local
forward zones and slave zones in the default configuration,
eliminate some of those examples.
3. Add new localhost-{forward|reverse} zone files, and an "empty" zone
to support the changes in 2.d. above. The empty zone file isn't really
empty in order to avoid a warning from BIND about a zone file that
doesn't contain any A or AAAA records.
by unavailable accounts, e.g., those locked, expired, not allowed in at
the moment by nologin(5), or whatever, depending on cron's pam.conf(5).
This applies to personal crontabs only, /etc/crontab is unaffected.
In other words, now the account management policy will apply to
commands scheduled by users via crontab(1) so that a user can no
longer use cron(8) to set up a delayed backdoor and run commands
during periods when the admin doesn't want him to.
The PAM check is done just before running a command, not when loading
a crontab, because accounts can get locked, expired, and re-enabled
any time with no changes to their crontabs. E.g., imagine that you
provide a system with payed access, or better a cluster of such
systems with centralized account management via PAM. When a user
pays for some days of access, you set his expire field respectively.
If the account expires before its owner pays more, its crontab
commands won't run until the next payment is made. Then it'll be
enough to set the expire field in future for the commands to run
again. And so on.
Document this change in the cron(8) manpage, which includes adding
a FILES section and touching the document date.
X-Security: should benefit as users have access to cron(8) by default
/etc/rc.d/sendmail whether or not to run newaliases if the database

In my opinion, the aliases file should never be automatically rebuilt.
The current text form could represent a work in progress. Therefore,
in FreeBSD 7.0, this new option will default to "NO". When this rc.d
change is MFC'ed, it will need to remain "YES" to maintain backward
compatibility.

instead of an authentication function. There are a design reason
and a practical reason for that. First, the module belongs in
account management because it checks availability of the account
and does no authentication. Second, there are existing and potential
PAM consumers that skip PAM authentication for good or for bad.
E.g., sshd(8) just prefers internal routines for public key auth;
OTOH, cron(8) and atrun(8) do implicit authentication when running
a job on behalf of its owner, so their inability to use PAM auth
is fundamental, but they can benefit from PAM account management.
Document this change in the manpage.
Modify /etc/pam.d files accordingly, so that pam_nologin.so is listed
