+  AUTHOR: markj@FreeBSD.org
+
+  The net-snmp port's newsyslog(8) configuration has been updated such
+  that the snmpd log file will be owned by the snmpd user following log
+  rotation.  This is done to make it easier to run snmpd as the snmpd
+  user rather than as root, using the snmpd_sugid rc.conf option.
+  For now snmpd still runs as root by default.  This is expected to change
+  in the future.
