b159dba912 Fix a mysterious 
csh: Permission denied
	csh: Trying to start from "/var/log"
message.

This was caused by the
	su -m uucp -c "uustat -a"
line being executed in a directory not readable by uucp. The login
shell implied by -m is of course root's shell, /bin/csh, which doesn't
like not being able to read the dir it is in, and thus the errors. By
temporarily cd'ing to /tmp the problem is fixed.

What is really needed, of course, is a way to tell su what shell you
want to use explicitly, especially for use in scripts where the
vagaries of which shell the login executing the script uses should not
be depended on. No such method exists. One should be added.

Indeed, it might also be nice to have a way of telling su to directly
execute a command with -c rather than using a shell to interpret the
command.

I cannot find any standards documents that specify su at the moment,
though. SuSv2 is silent on su(8).

0674841150 Put the 'uustat -a' into double quotes. 
It still doesn't work, but you won't get the error about an Unknown option: `-a'
anymore.

The login shell for uucp is /usr/libexec/uucp/uucico, so su -m doesn't work.
This needs to be fixed.

a6d42bbc31 Run uustat with uid=uucp, not with euid=uucp/uid=root, to prevent 
some badboys gaining back root privs. Inspided by OpenBSD.
Not that we didn't have this forever... (SA, anyone?)

e2773e5d61 run fsck with "-n -f" instead of just "-n"; recent changes to fsck 
mean that file systems mounted read-write are skipped unless -f is given.
problem noted by andrew brown.

eea58e8475 don't remove /var/tmp/vi.recover in (commented *out*) find's. 
this fixes PR 11120.
XXX note that this is supposed never to be uncommented due to a security
    issue (see /etc/daily) but there is no reason to do things doubly wrong.

7f4bafc7bd add "-n" to netstat -i to avoid reverse query and better audit. 
print IPv6 interface stat by netstat -inv separately.

ce3196e8dd Allows root to specify a MAILTO and have the security report mailed to 
the same user as the daily output.  If $USER is not root or MAILTO is
not set, MAILTO is set to root.  Closes PR 2409.
