BSD Authentication , otherwise known as BSD Auth, is an authentication software framework framework and software API employed by some Unix like operating system s, specifically OpenBSD and BSD OS , and accompanying System software system and Application software application software such as OpenSSH and Apache HTTP Server Apache . It originated with BSD OS and although the specification and implementation were donated to the FreeBSD project by BSDi , ultimately OpenBSD chose to adopt the framework in release 2.9. Pluggable Authentication Modules PAM serves a similar purpose on other operating systems such as Linux , FreeBSD and NetBSD . BSD Auth performs authentication by executing scripts or programs as separate Process computing process es from the one requiring the authentication. This prevents the child authentication process from interfering with the parent except through a narrowly defined inter process communication API, a technique inspired by the principle of least privilege and known as privilege separation . This behaviour has significant security benefits, notably improved Fail safe fail safeness of software, and robustness against malicious and accidental software bug s. ref name privsep cite conference author Niels Provos , CITI, University of Michigan Markus Friedl, GeNUA mbH Peter Honeyman, CITI, University of Michigan date 2003 url http www.usenix.org events sec03 tech provos et al.html title Preventing Privilege Escalation booktitle Proceedings of the 12th USENIX Security Symposium pages 231 242 ref PAM uses an alternative system where the modules providing authentication are Library computer science dynamically linked into the requesting process.

no footnotes date March 2011 Robots is a computer game originally developed for the Berkeley Software Distribution a derivative of Unix by Ken Arnold . In the turn based game, players are tasked with escaping robots programmed to kill them. Since then it has been reproduced as clone games for various platforms. Gameplay Robots is played on a two dimensional rectangular grid. The objective of the game is to escape from a number of robot s, which have been programmed with only a single objective to kill the player. Image Robots text screenshot.png right thumb BSD Robots The game is turn based. In the original game the player character starts at a randomly selected location. In some derivative versions, such as the GNOME version, the player starts at the centre of the grid. The robots start at randomly selected locations on the grid. Every time the player character moves a square in any direction horizontally, vertically, or diagonally , each robot moves one square closer to him, in whichever direction is the shortest way. If the player character collides with a robot, he dies and the game ends. However, the robots are also fatal to each other when two robots collide, they both die, leaving behind a scrap heap. These scrap heaps are also fatal to robots. The player can also Teleportation teleport into a randomly selected location in cases where escape is otherwise impossible. A teleportation counts as a move. However, because the location is randomly selected, it is possible that the player teleports right into the path of a robot. In some versions of the game, there is a safe teleport feature which the player may use a limited number of times for instance once per level and there may also be a close range weapon which kills all robots within the immediate vicinity, the use of which would be limited in a similar way. When all robots on a level are dead, the player moves onto another level, with more robots. Traditionally, the number of robots increases by ten each leve ... more details
About the NetBSD file system the general concept log structured file system The Log Structured File System or LFS is an implementation of a log structured file system a concept originally proposed and implemented by John Ousterhout , originally developed for Berkeley Software Distribution BSD .

The indirect block, inode and directory formats are almost identical. This allows well tested UFS file system code to be re used current implementations of LFS share the higher level UFS code with the lower level code for FFS, since both of these file systems share much in common with UFS. LFS divides the disk into segments , only one of which is active at any one time. Each segment has a header called a summary block . Each summary block contains a pointer to the next summary block, linking segments into one long chain that LFS treats as a linear log. The segments do not necessarily have to be adjacent to each other on disk for this reason, larger segment sizes between 384KB and 1MB are recommended because they amortize the cost of seeking between segments. ref name ousterhout 1992 citation last1 Rosenblum first1 Mendel last2 Ousterhout first2 John K date February 1992 url http www.hhhh.org perseant lfs lfsSOSP91.ps.gz title The Design and Implementation of a Log Structured Filesystem journal ACM Transactions on Computer Systems volume 10 issue 1 pages 26 52 doi 10.1145 146941.146943 . ref Whenever a file or directory is changed, LFS writes to the head of this log Any changed or new data blocks.

Kernel normal form , or KNF , is the coding style used in the development of code for the BSD operating systems. Based on the original KNF concept from the Computer Systems Research Group , it dictates a programming style to which contributed code should adhere prior to its inclusion into the codebase . KNF started out as a codification of how Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie formatted the original UNIX C programming language C source code. It describes such things as how to name variables, use indents and the use of ANSI C or K&R C code styles. Each BSD variant has its own KNF rules, which have evolved over time to differ from each other in small ways.

The project was officially discontinued on 2009 03 03 due to flaws inherent to syscall wrapper based security architectures.
