I see. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Then again, the registry is the epitome of all that's counter-intuitive,

There are NSS patches for FreeBSD; check the PR database;

I noticed a patch on freebsd-scsi a while back that
added a not very complete form of atapi as scsi support
to the freebsd kernel. Are there plans to complete
this and add it to -current sometime before -current
turns into 5.0-RELEASE? Thanks for any information.

Hi!
Look at the "Pam problems today" mails on the list, do a cvs update
or apply this patch:

If you don't want to rebuild everything, try:

Hm, Darwin is (userspace-wise) mostly FreeBSD 3.x, isn't it? I wouldn't
expect porting its NetInfo implementation to be particularly difficult.

So why is it mentioned in the ntpd man page ?
