inetutils | GNU network utilities

inetutils is a C library typically used in Debian applications. inetutils has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

gnu inetutils - the gnu networking utilities. the gnu networking utilities are the common networking utilities, clients and servers of the gnu operating system. the individual utilities were originally derived from the 4.4bsdlite2 distribution. many features were integrated from netbsd, openbsd, freebsd and gnu/linux. the file `paths' contains a list of all paths used by programs in this distribution, and rules to find values for them. to change a path path_foo, you may either tell configure, by using `--with-path-foo=value' (where value may contain references to make variables such as `$(bindir)'), or edit the `paths' file. see further below for some important cases. if you wish to build only the clients or only the servers, you may wish to use the --disable-servers or --disable-clients options when invoking `configure'. you can also use --enable- or --disable- to control whether to build individual programs; if you explicitly specify whether to build a program, that will override the values specified by --disable-clients or --disable-servers. some words on testing are in order. the three tests `ftp-localhost', `ping', and `traceroute', all need to be run by root. several tests will depend on infrastructure files in `/etc/', but most tests will complain about their obvious needs. anyway, these dependencies are important whenever chrooted builds are
