System: NetBSD WintelKiller 1.4C NetBSD 1.4C (WintelKiller) #127: Wed Jun 9 00:30:57 MEST 1999 thilo@WintelKiller:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/WintelKiller i386


>Description:
If I read hier(7) correctly:
[...]
/usr/      contains the majority of the system utilities and
[...]
     bin/  common utilities, programming tools, and applica-
           tionsfiles
[...]
    sbin/   system daemons and system utilities (normally exe-
            cuted by the super-user)

newsyslog(8) should be kept in /usr/sbin and not /usr/bin since
it can only be run as superuser.

>How-To-Repeat:
run /usr/bin/newsyslog without root privileges.

>Fix:
cd <source-tree>
mv usr.bin/newsyslog usr.sbin
