$ git cat-file blob v1.06:README
libnet is a collection of Perl modules which provides a simple
and consistent programming interface (API) to the client side
of various protocols used in the internet community.

For details of each protocol please refer to the RFC. RFC's
can be found a various places on the WEB, for a staring
point look at:

http://www.yahoo.com/Computers_and_Internet/Standards/RFCs/

The RFC implemented in this distribution are

Net::FTP RFC959 File Transfer Protocol
Net::SMTP RFC821 Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
Net::Time RFC867 Daytime Protocol
Net::Time RFC868 Time Protocol
Net::NNTP RFC977 Network News Transfer Protocol
Net::POP3 RFC1939 Post Office Protocol 3
Net::SNPP RFC1861 Simple Network Pager Protocol

The distribution also contains a module (Net::PH) which facilitates
comunicate with with servers using the CCSO Nameserver Server-Client
Protocol

FUTURE WORK

Work in progress includes

Net::SNMP RFC 1157 Simple Network Management Protocol

AVAILABILITY

The latest version of libnet is available from the Comprehensive Perl
Archive Network (CPAN). To find a CPAN site near you see:

http://www.perl.com/CPAN
^ no slash here !!

INSTALLATION

In order to use this package you will need Perl version 5.002 or
better. You install libnet, as you would install any perl module
library, by running these commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

If you want to install a private copy of libnet in your home
directory, then you should try to produce the initial Makefile with
something like this command:

perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=~/perl

The Makefile.PL program will start out by checking your perl
installation for a few packages that are recommended to be installed
together with libnet. These packages should be available on CPAN
(described above).

DOCUMENTATION

See ChangeLog for recent changes. POD style documentation is included
in all modules and scripts. These are normally converted to manual
pages and installed as part of the "make install" process. You should
also be able to use the 'perldoc' utility to extract documentation from
the module files directly.

DEMOS

The demos directory does contain a few demo scripts. These should be
run from the top directory like

demos/smtp.self -user my-email-address -debug

However I do not guarantee these scripts to work.

SUPPORT

Questions about how to use this library should be directed to the
comp.lang.perl.modules USENET Newsgroup. Bug reports and suggestions
for improvements can be sendt to me at <gbarr@pobox.com>.

Most of the modules in this library have an option to output a debug
transcript to STDERR. When reporting bugs/problems please, if possible,
include a transcript of a run.

This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
it under the same terms as Perl itself.

Share and Enjoy!
