I uploaded a new suite of networking programs to
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Incoming.  The files are:

* net-0.2.README        summary of distribution contents and notes
* net-src-0.2.tar.Z     BSD source for all programs and a BSD library
* net-bin-0.2.tar.Z     binaries and man pages for all programs

This distribution provides Linux-ready versions of most of the standard
bsd-net2 networking programs.  Included programs are:

ftp ftpd telnet telnetd inetd ping named named-xfer nslookup nsquery
rcp rsh rshd rlogin rlogind finger fingerd talk ntalkd tftp tftpd

The binary distribution is compiled with libc.so.4.2.  This means that
you *must* upgrade to the libc included with the latest gcc 2.3.3
before you can use them.  Also note that you must have the latest
Linux kernel 0.99 patchlevel 2 for rlogind to work correctly.

* the compiled ftpd does not use the shadow password library
* telnetd and rlogind require a login that understands the -h argument
* kerberos support is not yet compiled in
