Hi

baselayout-1.7.1 is released, and contains a few needed fixes,
and some feature updates.

Please note that the /etc/conf.d/net has changed sligtly due
to enhancements to the gateway variable.  You now also must
specify the device like so:

  gateway="eth0/192.168.0.1"



Changes for this release includes:
* rc-scripts 1.2.6 (6 Feb 2002)

  2 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@g.o): updated
  /etc/net.eth0 to specify the gateway device via the $gateway
  variable (something like gateway="eth0/192.168.0.1").

  2 Feb 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@g.o): added
  rc-script /etc/init.d/numlock, for enabling numlock at boot.

  29 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@g.o): hopefully
  the last fix to /etc/init.d/netmount to umount cleanly. This
  fix implements a retry if not successful the first time, and
  will kill processess using the mount.  Also small type-o fix
  to /etc/init.d/halt.sh.

  27 Jan 2002: Donny Davies (woodchip@g.o): security
  fix to /etc/pam.d/sshd,login,chsh: added pam_shells.so to
  the stack.  Fixed /etc/passwd,group for user/group mysql.

  27 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@g.o): added
  charset map file support to /etc/init.d/consolefont and the
  setting to /etc/rc.conf.

  25 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@g.o): fixed
  dircolors in skel files to support both versions of
  dircolors.

  23 Jan 2002: Martin Schlemmer (azarah@g.o): fixed bug
  in the restart stuff of /etc/init.d/runscript.sh that caused
  a restart of a 'net' service not to restart services again
  that depended on it.
