Satoshi, you and I must be on the same wavelength. Though I had different categories in mind. Honestly, net can be divided into main topics based on who uses them. (mind you this is just food for thought).. (1) userland programs (bitchx irc ncftp*...) (2) sysadmin programs (sniffit ntop mrt...) note: most of these are sysadmin simply because they use bpf0. (3) daemons (proftpd wide-dhcp socks5...) and maybe... (4) libraries On Wed, 19 Aug 1998, Satoshi Asami wrote: > * I'd look for it in net, too.
