* Add support for "first boot" rc.d scripts. [1]cperciva2013-10-191-1/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These scripts, containing # KEYWORD: firstboot will only be run if a sentinel file (default: /firstboot, configurable via the rc.conf ${firstboot_sentinel} variable) exists; this sentinel file will be deleted at the end of the boot process. Scripts can request that the system reboot after the first boot by creating the file ${firstboot_sentinel}-reboot. This functionality is expected to be useful for embedded systems and virtual machine images, where it may be desirable to (a) download and install updates which became available between when the image was created and when it was "turned on"; (b) download and install packages which may be newer than those which were available when the image was created; (c) install packages which run binaries during their install process, bypassing the problem of cross-architecture installs; (d) resize filesystems to match the disk onto which a VM image was installed; (e) perform initialization tasks relevant to cloud systems (e.g., Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud); and likely to perform many other one-time initialization functions. Document this new functionality in rc.conf(5) and rc(8). [2] Reviewed by: freebsd-current, freebsd-rc [1] Reviewed by: Warren Block [2] MFC after: 3 days

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | and enable the usage by sendmail if sendmail is enabled. Include and document knobs to disable this feature and also set the Common Name of the certificate created. As the certificate is signed w/ a discarded key, it only helps prevent Eve, but not Malory from knowing the contents of the emails. This means that new installs (and people that use the updated freebsd.mc file) will automaticly have STARTTLS enabled allowing incoming email to be encrypted in most cases.

* Add a setup script for unbound(8) called local-unbound-setup. Itdes2013-09-232-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | generates a configuration suitable for running unbound as a caching forwarding resolver, and configures resolvconf(8) to update unbound's list of forwarders in addition to /etc/resolv.conf. The initial list is taken from the existing resolv.conf, which is rewritten to point to localhost. Alternatively, a list of forwarders can be provided on the command line. To assist this script, add an rc.subr command called "enabled" which does nothing except return 0 if the service is enabled and 1 if it is not, without going through the usual checks. We should consider doing the same for "status", which is currently pointless. Add an rc script for unbound, called local_unbound. If there is no configuration file, the rc script runs local-unbound-setup to generate one. Note that these scripts place the unbound configuration files in /var/unbound rather than /etc/unbound. This is necessary so that unbound can reload its configuration while chrooted. We should probably provide symlinks in /etc. Approved by: re (blanket)

* rc.d: document 'quiet' prefix and fix dhclient/devd interactionrea2012-01-121-1/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Document the current semantics of the 'quiet' command prefix in the rc.subr(8). Fix dhclient rc.d script: it should not call err() for non-DHCP-enabled interface when it is called from devd, because the latter just blindly calls 'service dhclient quietstart' on each "link up" event. Since the 'quietstart' will silence the message "Cannot 'start' <foo>. Set <foo>_enable to YES in /etc/rc.conf or use 'onestart' instead of 'start'." and running dhclient on the non-DHCP-enabled interface is the same thing as running the service <foo> without <foo>_enable set, such modification is in sync with the current semantics of the 'quiet' prefix.
