garbled eaea23aab0 Apply patches in PR bin/24645 by Peter Postma:
Here are some enhancements to sushi's System Maintenance menu.
	To summarize the changes:

	* Make a backup of the file before modifying it.
	* Fixes to get all menus/forms working.
	* Missing/invalid settings (like in rc.conf and inetd.conf)
	  have been added/removed.
	* Most files don't get overwritten now but are edited instead.
	  So specials settings in e.g. /etc/rc.conf don't get lost now.
	* Some help menu fixes. ($NetBSD$ tag has been removed because I
	  don't see how it would be useful for either user or developer).

You may edit various config files that usually reside in /etc on your system
using these menu entries.
Startup configuration files is your /etc/rc.conf file. This file controls
which daemons and services are initialized at boot time.
The inetd.conf file determines which services, such as ftp and telnet,
are listened for by your machine.
The usermgmt.conf file determines the default behavior of the useradd/userdel
group of commands, and sets defaults that will be used later when
deleting or adding users with these commands.
The daily.conf file is the configuration file for the daily cronjob that runs
once each day. It will determine what things are checked for, and emailed to
the root user.
The weekly.conf file is the configuration file for the weekly cronjob that runs
once each week. It is similar to the daily.conf file.
The security.conf file is the configuration for the security verification
script that is optionally executed by the daily cronjob. You may configure
which security verifications are run on a daily basis by editing this file.
The sysctl menu allows you to both change current kernel settings, and
cause them to be automatically set on reboot using the /etc/sysctl.conf
file.
The sshd_config file is the configuration file for the SSH daemon. See the
manpage for sshd(8) and sshd_config(5) for more details on the configuration
of this daemon.
The localtime menu allows you to set this machine's local timezone.
The mailer.conf file decides which mailer your system runs by default.
NetBSD ships with both postfix and sendmail, though other mailers added
via the package system may be selectable.
