 /usr/ports/security/lockdown [ sorry if this is a PR or for ports- ]
altered fstab, login.conf and ttys locking me out of my main machine, proba=
bly due
to the password hash, but only a daily backup helped me login again and fix=
 the=20
damages, with a few files "hardened" maybe but at a cost of uncertainty=20
as to whether the net benefit was good/bad once the system is back up, as
it is now.
  It fortunately only took me about an hour.  This would have been much mor=
e=20
problematic if I had not had 14 years experience in FreeBSD.
  Can someone alter the port to log its actions, create backups, ask permis=
sion for
each block of edits it is about to undertake, etc, so someone with critical=
 server data
or less of a backup doesn't suffer the same? Something like a mergemaster w=
