Actually many commercial tools aren't doing it well either. EasyIP is just one example :-) Also it's quite clear why there aren't many open source tool of good quality: programmers don't understand IP networking, and network engineers (in general) cannot develop software of good quality :-) _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
