NAME
     libnetcfg - configure libnet

DESCRIPTION
     The libnetcfg utility can be used to configure the libnet.	 Starting from
     perl 5.8 libnet is part of the standard Perl distribution, but the lib-
     netcfg can be used for any libnet installation.

USAGE
     Without arguments libnetcfg displays the current configuration.

	 $ libnetcfg
	 # old config ./libnet.cfg
	 daytime_hosts	      ntp1.none.such
	 ftp_int_passive      0
	 ftp_testhost	      ftp.funet.fi
	 inet_domain	      none.such
	 nntp_hosts	      nntp.none.such
	 ph_hosts
	 pop3_hosts	      pop.none.such
	 smtp_hosts	      smtp.none.such
	 snpp_hosts
	 test_exist	      1
	 test_hosts	      1
	 time_hosts	      ntp.none.such
	 # libnetcfg -h for help
	 $

     It tells where the old configuration file was found (if found).

     The "-h" option will show a usage message.

     To change the configuration you will need to use either the "-c" or the
     "-d" options.

     The default name of the old configuration file is by default "libnet.cfg",
     unless otherwise specified using the -i option, "-i oldfile", and it is
     searched first from the current directory, and then from your module path.

     The default name of the new configuration file is "libnet.cfg", and by de-
     fault it is written to the current directory, unless otherwise specified
     using the -o option, "-o newfile".
