I really question the need for this in the default OpenSolaris repositories. What is driving this being part of our architecture ? Is it being included as a functional testing tool for our networking technologies or because it is a hacking/penetration testing tool ? Given the description of the tool and the fact it says "attacks" I feel this is a very different case to including tools like nmap which are scanners. -- Darren J Moffat
