>Description:

	In /etc/crontab, there is a commented-out call to /usr/bin/newsyslog.

	Given the goal of making FreeBSD easy for people to setup (cf. new
	install scripts), /usr/bin/newsyslog should be un-commented.

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed 
State-Changed-By: wollman 
State-Changed-When: Sat Jan 14 12:20:09 PST 1995 
State-Changed-Why:  
1) There is no such program as `newsyslog' in FreeBSD. 
2) This functionality is handled differently by the daily/weekly/monthly 
scripts (which arguably ought to use a log-rotation utility, but in 
the absence of one aren't about to change).
