5. NetTools installation

The NetTools package contains a lot of the basic utils that you will use to communicate with network devices. This includes programs like arp, rarp, route, ifconfig and netstat. Since these programs do not know about Token Ring by default, you will need to add the NetTools patch so these utilities can work more efficiently with the Token Ring driver.

NOTICE:

The current version of NetTools for 1.2.x kernels is 1.2.0. If you are running a 2.0 kernel, your nettools is most likely already up to date. However, you can get the latest source from:

ftp://tapac.inka.de/pub/comp/Linux/networking/NetTools/
  1. (1) Copy and Untar the NetTools source into your source directory.
    cp net-tools-1.2.0.patched.tar.gz  /usr/src
    tar -zxvof /usr/src/net-tools-1.2.0.tar.gz 
            
    
  2. (5) Make the net-tools files.
    cd /usr/src/net
    make install
