System: NetBSD rainier.reedmedia.net 1.6 NetBSD 1.6 (JCR-20020927) #3: Sat Sep 28 13:40:20 PDT 2002 reed@rainier.reedmedia.net:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/JCR-20020927 i386

>Description:
It would be convenient if manual pages
existed for daily, weekly, monthly, and security.
>How-To-Repeat:
man daily
>Fix:
The already-existing manual pages, like daily.conf
and security.conf could be slightly edited and links created
so they could be used too.
