We have posted the i386.rpm, src.rpm, and patches on our WWW site at
http://www.affinity-systems.ab.ca/software/ for net-tools-rhcn-1.52.  These
should work on Red Hat 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 but were compiled under Red Hat 5.2
and kernel 2.2.9

This is a collection of the basic tools necessary for setting up networking
on a Linux machine. It includes ifconfig, route, netstat, rarp, and
some other minor tools.

Please note that the binary package was linked against glibc 2.0.7 and
therefore does not support IPV6.  If you need IPV6 support, please contact
us and we may be able to make a package available in a short time.

Please send bug reports to bugs@affinity-systems.ab.ca
