hi,

i just took the update, as a fiendly-tester, and i have some questions.

1) is there still a file /etc/version ?? is there something new to take
its place?  I can't find it.

2) same questions about /etc/rc.conf

3) i tried to read the man page on mkserv, it's not there, or i can't
get to it.  did it move, or did man paths get munged? etc?

4) i used mkserv to re-enable telnet access to this machine (thelonious)
and it gave me about ten thousand lines of this stuff:

Copying symbolic link /srvd/usr/athena/xzwrite .
Copying link to /site/server/usr/athena/xzwrite from /srvd/usr/athena/xzwrite, mode is 00755.
Copying symbolic link /srvd/usr/athena/zaway .
Copying link to /site/server/usr/athena/zaway from /srvd/usr/athena/zaway, modeis 00755.
Copying symbolic link /srvd/usr/athena/zctl .
Copying link to /site/server/usr/athena/zctl from /srvd/usr/athena/zctl, mode is 00755.
Copying symbolic link /srvd/usr/athena/zleave .

Is that what mkserv is supposed to do?  (This is the first time I used
it, instead of screwing around with conf files, etc, myself.)


Awaiting your answers, I remain,

bewilderly yours,
