--H42GZzeTnltQoJLf There is a reference in both man pages and source files to the user class being a pointer to a "termcap-like" capabilities and attributes database. I assume that support for this is not completed, or has ceased. Is this a FreeBSD-specific project, or is it tied to bsd 4.4lite? I could use this sorts of hook in an accounting system I'm developing, and was wondering to whom I might speak for mor information on the subject. Specifically, I need to know: 1) Is this a FreeBSD specific facility, or is it a bsd one (involving not only FreeBSD developers but the others)? 2) How much work has already been done already in terms of standardising user attributes (and what they are), 3) What existing code supports the facility, and how much freedom exists to expand the concept to cover user/session accounting in general.
