SFS (Self-Certifying File System) is a secure, global file system
with completely decentralized control. SFS lets you access your
files from anywhere and share them with anyone, anywhere. Anyone
can set up an SFS server, and any user can access any server from
any client. SFS lets you share files across administrative realms
without involving administrators or certification authorities.
SFS names file systems by public keys. Every remote file server is
mounted on a self-certifying pathname -- a directory of the form
/sfs/LOCATION:HOSTID, where LOCATION is a DNS hostname and HOSTID
is a cryptographic hash of a public key. This naming scheme allows
for completely decentralized control -- anyone can create a file
server, and any user can access any file server from any client.
Various key management schemes can be built on top of SFS using
symbolic links to map human-readable names to self-certifying
pathnames.
In the rc.d scripts, change assignments to rcvar to use the
literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
Update port: security/sfs, fix build with gcc42
The attached patch fixes security/sfs so it builds with
gcc42. The only change I made that I am wary of is commenting
out the LIBTOOL variable in ${WRKSRC}/sfsrwcd/Makefile.
However, this seems to work fine on both 7.0-CURRENT and
6.2-STABLE.
In addition, I would not mind maintaining the port.

Mass-conversion to the USE_AUTOTOOLS New World Order. The code present
in bsd.autotools.mk essentially makes this a no-op given that all the
old variables set a USE_AUTOTOOLS_COMPAT variable, which is parsed in
exactly the same way as USE_AUTOTOOLS itself.
Moreover, USE_AUTOTOOLS has already been extensively tested by the GNOME
team -- all GNOME 2.12.x ports use it.
Preliminary documentation can be found at:
http://people.FreeBSD.org/~ade/autotools.txt
which is in the process of being SGMLized before introduction into the
Porters Handbook.
Light blue touch-paper. Run.
Apply a big libtool patch to allow porters to use the libtool installed by
the libtoolX ports instead of the one included with each port. Ports that
set USE_LIBTOOL_VER=X will now use the ports version of libtool instead of
the included version. To restore previous behavior, use the new macro,
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER. Both macros accept the same argument: a libtool version.
For example, to use the ports version of libtool-1.5, add the following to
your Makefile:
USE_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
To use the included version of libtool with extra hacks provided by
libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile:
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
With this change, ports that had to add additional libtool hacks to prevent
.la files from being installed or to fix certain threading issues can now
delete those hacks (after appropriate testing, of course).

Bound to be hidden problems: You bet
- Add patch for NFS headers and unbreak build
- Use UID/GID 171, 71 belongs to Oracle
- Use USE_LIBTOOL and remove .la files
