branches: 1.32.10;
Add _rtadvd user and group.
Add a chroot dir for the _rtadvd user.
Drop privs to the user _rtadvd after acquiring our socket.
When rc.d/rtadvd starts or reloads, the rtadvd config file is copied
into the chroot before starting or reloading rtadvd itself.
Create a symlink from /var/run/rtadvd.dump to the chroot

Inital idea from OpenBSD patch rtadvd.c r1.36


# 1.31 07-Jun-2013 mbalmer

Move _gpio gid below 100 per mrg's request.


# 1.30 20-May-2013 mbalmer

Rename the 'gpio' group to '_gpio' as new group names should start with an
underscore. While here, fix the awk script to properly expand such group
names.


# 1.29 19-May-2013 mbalmer

Add a group 'gpio' and create gpio(4) device nodes under /dev with
mode 664 and group ownership set to 'gpio'. This allows controlled access
to specifically enabled gpio pins to members of the gpio group. See
gpioctl(8), and, gpio(4) for details.

Rename the _atf user to _tests. The _atf name will get obsoleted if/when
we migrate to Kyua (atf v2), so it's better to use a generic name that does
not depend on the specific implementation. Also, this user has not gone
out yet into any stable release, so we can easily rename it.

Add a group 'gpio' and create gpio(4) device nodes under /dev with
mode 664 and group ownership set to 'gpio'. This allows controlled access
to specifically enabled gpio pins to members of the gpio group. See
gpioctl(8), and, gpio(4) for details.

Rename the _atf user to _tests. The _atf name will get obsoleted if/when
we migrate to Kyua (atf v2), so it's better to use a generic name that does
not depend on the specific implementation. Also, this user has not gone
out yet into any stable release, so we can easily rename it.

Inital idea from OpenBSD patch rtadvd.c r1.36


# 1.31 07-Jun-2013 mbalmer

Move _gpio gid below 100 per mrg's request.


# 1.30 20-May-2013 mbalmer

Rename the 'gpio' group to '_gpio' as new group names should start with an
underscore. While here, fix the awk script to properly expand such group
names.


# 1.29 18-May-2013 mbalmer

Add a group 'gpio' and create gpio(4) device nodes under /dev with
mode 664 and group ownership set to 'gpio'. This allows controlled access
to specifically enabled gpio pins to members of the gpio group. See
gpioctl(8), and, gpio(4) for details.


# 1.28 27-Jan-2012 christos

branches: 1.28.6;
- add _tss user for tcsd, and needed directories for TrouSerS.
This is all unused as of now because the trousers is not connected to
the build yet.


# 1.27 05-Aug-2011 jmmv

branches: 1.27.2;
Rename the _atf user to _tests. The _atf name will get obsoleted if/when
we migrate to Kyua (atf v2), so it's better to use a generic name that does
not depend on the specific implementation. Also, this user has not gone
out yet into any stable release, so we can easily rename it.

Suggested by jruoho@.


# 1.26 17-Dec-2010 jruoho

Make tcpdump(8) to drop root privileges and chroot(2) by default.


# 1.25 06-Nov-2010 jmmv

Add the _atf user and group to be able to run unprivileged tests automatically
without having to manually tweak the 'unprivileged-user' setting. Suggested
by pooka@.


# 1.24 29-Sep-2009 tsarna

Multicast DNS ("Bonjour") support, based on Apple's mDNSResponder.


# 1.23 15-Oct-2007 tls

Add httpd to the build. Add _httpd to passwd and groups and postinstall.
Add /var/www to mtree, add example line to inetd.conf.


# 1.22 18-Mar-2007 plunky

branches: 1.22.4;
For sdpd(8), change default user/group from nobody/nobody to _sdpd/_sdpd


# 1.21 28-Jan-2007 cbiere

Let timedc use the dedicated account "_timedc" for dropping privileges
instead of abusing the account "nobody".


# 1.20 07-Oct-2006 rpaulo

branches: 1.20.2; 1.20.4;
PR 30870: Add user ``_proxy'' and make pf's ftp-proxy use it.

# 1.10 11-Oct-2001 lukem

- add "ntpd" user (homedir: /var/chroot/ntpd) and "ntpd" group, for use by
future work to support a chroot(8)ed ntpd
- move /var/named -> /var/chroot/named for consistency with ntpd


# 1.9 25-Feb-2001 lukem

remove `ingres' user & group; we have never shipped with ingres in the
base distribution, and packages that need a specific user & group can
create it.
