The fourth and fifth paragraphs of the man page for activate(8) (on
the RT, at least, but probably on all architectures) reads:
The deactivate script performs four tasks. First it deletes
all files stored in the /tmp and hesiod nameserver to fur-
nish information about the workstation's cluster environ-
ment; it uses the nameserver's information and the attach
command to attach the workstation's system, and usr filesys-
tems; and it runs the access_off program to turn off the
workstation's ability to accept remote connections.
This last step closes the workstation from unexpected and
possibly hostile remote connections. After logging in, you
can use the access_on command to allow remote access.
The first paragraph above is a corrupted version of an earlier
paragraph, and the second paragraph above is also a repeat of an
earlier paragraph. Both of these paragraphs should be removed.
