i'm going to install freebsd 2.0 tonight and want to
know the PROPER way to install the "secdist" des security
package (i.e., how do i keep my password files from becoming
interpreted incorrectly and locking me out?). i screwed up
my 1.1.5 installation beyond repair (by myself, anyway) by
trying to install secdist.
Just install it before you setup your passwords.
Be happy...
