I think tcpdump helps Solaris pass the "warm fuzzy feeling"-test
that people take when they take their first steps on a new
platform. As such, it is a good thing to have, even though there
might be better alternatives.

Of course, this applies to a lot of programs, but I think for
many administrators, tcpdump is on the top of their lists.

Also, even though wireshark might be the preferred open source candidate
for us, tcpdump is here to stay for a long time.
