--- Comment #2 from Dag-Erling Smørgrav <des@FreeBSD.org> ---
We don't actually install `auth.conf`, you must have created it yourself.

We do install `dma.conf`, but it does not usually contain anything sensitive.

However, since dma is already setgid, we can easily change `dma.conf` to 0640,
and install a dummy `auth.conf` with the correct permissions to reduce the risk
that users will create it world-readable.
