You would then need to add a warning when this option is enabled, as
according to
doc/tech-notes.txt this option is dangerous:
PASSFILE
_WARNING!_ Turning this on is very dangerous and should
probably not be done, except on single user systems! For
:
I'm stuck here!
I went through the Pine Makefile coz I recollect it giving me a warning
about Pine not recommended by the FreeBSD Security Officer. And I also
went through the Porter's Handbook (very briefly). From these two I learnt
about the "pkg-install" file and so I tried putting in something there to
popup as a warning after the first warning.
/usr/bin/dialog --msgbox "_WARNING!_ Turning the PASSFILE option on is
very dangerous and should probably not be done, except on single user
systems!" 7 70
But thing is -- how do I make this warning appear *only* if the PASSFILE
option is chosen? From what I can see, the "WITH_PASSFILE" variable is not
visible to the "pkg-install" file and so I can't use that to wrap the
dialog around an if ... fi block. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rakhesh
