>Description:
	
	The manpage of login.conf(5) fails to mention the necessity of
	rebuilding the capabilities hash database after modifying
	login.conf .
>How-To-Repeat:
	
	Look at login.conf(5) as distributed with FreeBSD 5.2.1 and 4.9
>Fix:

	Add a caveat/warning/whatever to rebuild the capabilities database
	after a modification.
