Management daemon with fine grained permission, extremely useful. Would = Juniper consider donating to FreeBSD under a BSD license portions of = this code, the MGD, which could be reused in FreeBSD ? A fine grained = permission system on daemon IPC and the scaffoldings of a management = configuration daemon would help FreeBSD. I am very grateful your company = helped us with libxo.
