if given a non-existent filename. It gives a nice error message which
is better rather than the current silent failure.

SSH login failures. This is similar but not identical to a patch
submitted by aeonflux@synapse.subneural.net.
o Introduce /var/log/authentication.log, which will be the target for
auth.info and authpriv.info by default. Rotate on the same schedule
as most other logs. Create at installation.
o Remove logging of auth.info from /var/log/security.log, which will
return to being only for security feature subsystems (such as ipfw,
and so on).
This creates a special authentication log, which can now be searched
by scripts for authentication events.

At the same time, allow the administrator to have dumpdev enabled
while dumpdir (savecore(8)) is disabled and document how to do it.

but set to listen to the service port 'cvs' which doesn't exist. It
should listen to 'cvspserver'.

when running natd(8) out of the rc-files. It is perfectly valid for
the interface or alias address to be set in a natd(8) configuration
file, not on the command line. Also, loosen up the restrictions on
identifying an IP address argument in 'natd_interface.'
Fix the documentation, rc.conf(5), to reflect this change.

Include information on reverting to a set-user-ID root sendmail binary in

Checking for the existence of sendmail.cf is rather silly when someone
is using the mailwrapper(8) to run a mail daemon that is not actually
sendmail(8). It is also probably better to let sendmail(8) actually
try to start and error out if the administrator has
'sendmail_enable="YES"' but no sendmail.conf. At present, it would
fail silently.
