>Description:
The following commands/manpages are, in order of appearance,
mentioned in the text, and could (or: should) therefore be
mentioned in the `SEE ALSO'-section as well:

   ssh(1), sshd_config(5), wscons.conf(5), dhclient(8),
   dhclient.conf(5), ifconfig.if(5), nsswitch.conf(5), rpcbind(8),
   yp(8), ntpdate(8), ntpd(8), rdate(8), timed(8), groupadd(8),
   user(8), xdm(1), lpd(8), printcap(5), pkg_add(1), ps(1), fstat(1),
   systat(1), top(1), dmesg(8)

(The ls(1) manpage, mentioned in the beginning of the manpage, is
left out of this list since it is only referenced as an example.)

The following manpages are mentioned in the `SEE ALSO'-section but
not in the text; it could be deciced whether or not they are to be
kept in that section (however, most, if not all, can be kept indeed):

   config(1), crontab(1), make(1), man(1), aliases(5), exports(5),
   krb.conf(5), krb.realms(5), mailer.conf(5), hier(7), hostname(7),
   pkgsrc(7), bootparamd(8), inetd(8), rbootd(8), rc(8), rmt(8),
   ypbind(8)

Additionally, although not explicitly mentioned in the text, sshd(8)
could be listed in the `SEE ALSO'-section as well.

`adduser(8)', mentioned in the `SEE ALSO'-section, could better be
changed to `useradd(8)' since that is what the command is actually
called.

A `,' is proposed to be changed to a `;'.
>How-To-Repeat:
"man 8 afterboot"
>Fix:
Proposed patch:


$ cvs diff -u share/man/man8/afterboot.8
