I wanted to get some exposure for the patch Good move. I still have in my =drafts folder a post to freebsd-doc with a copy of your patch.

Don't worry too much about this. I can send you a commented version of the patch you have at: http://www.seekingfire.com/patches/kerberos5.patch Then you can pick whatever suits you and integrate it to your copy :-) > It's kind of an awkward process, and diff'ing two patches is kind of > useless.

It uses a TAB for indenting the diff output (which makes the output pretty useless for patch(1) input) so the two patches would look like this: - - original original line - + first patch version - original original line + - original original line + + second patch version + original original line The changes I did was mostly the change/addition of a few tags. Some <command>foo</command> stuff was replaced with &man.foo.8; entities. I've added a "Synopsis" section to sections that rendered like this: * Section title + Subsection title Text Text + Subsection title and fixed a few typos (s/In principal/In principle/ is one that I can remember off the top of my head. - Giorgos
