FreeBSD comms  : qpage
SNPP client/server for sending messages to an alphanumeric pager
QuickPage sends messages to a paging terminal using the SNPP and IXO
(also known as TAP) protocols. It is normally used with no options
other than a recipient and the message text, in which case the message
is sent to the SNPP server where it is submitted to a page queue to be
sent by a separate daemon process.
Page groups and duty schedules are supported. Status notification
messages indicating the success or failure of a page are sent via
e-mail to submitters of high-priority (level 0) pages.

The qpage port will run words together in long pages. The problem
is in msgcpy in util.c, where the breaks don't preserve word
boundries.

Nitpicks for the comms/qpage port
The comms/qpage port has a few minor problems. A default installation gives
the following errors when the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/qpage.sh script is
execute:
qpage[68438]: cannot open /etc/qpage.cf: No such file or directory
qpage[68438]: cannot access LockDir(/var/spool/lock): Permission denied
qpage[68438]: cannot access QueueDir(/var/spool/qpage): No such file or directory
qpage[68438]: cannot chdir to QueueDir(/var/spool/qpage): No such file or directory
In short:
1) qpage looks for its configuration file in /etc instead of /usr/local/etc
2) It setuid()'s to a user (daemon) without permission to access /var/spool/lock
but does not document this anywhere outside of the source.
3) It's queue directory is not created by installing the port.

As threatened on freebsd-ports: all startup scripts know about the two
options `start' and `stop' now (unless I have forgotten any). This allows
us to call the scripts from /etc/rc.shutdown with the correct option.
The (42 or so) ports that already DTRT before are unchanged.

Un-break: the MASTER_SITE returned extra bytes when servicing an
HTTP/1.1 request. Moved distfile to www.freebsd.org/~fenner/
temporarily. Left original MASTER_SITE commented out - newer
fetch fetches the distfile properly, and server administrator is
working on the problem, so will probably be able to be moved back
soon.

Re-import of qpage port which used to live in the misc category. Here's
the import message used when it was imported to ports/misc:
New port, qpage:

(also known as TAP) protocols. It is normally used with no options
other than a recipient and the message text, in which case the message
is sent to the SNPP server where it is submitted to a page queue to be
