Well, I've decided to upgrade my net-tools, after reading a reply to a
ppd2.3.3 and 2.1.89/90 problem....I've had this prob as well and haven't
been able to figure it out, since my net-tools won't compile....I'm not
much of a hacker, so troubleshooting this code would take me a
lifetime....can someone help me? I know it has something to do with the
fact that I am running libc5 and in the Makefile, you have to uncomment
some options if you use libc5.....I dunno though, can someone help me
here?

ACK! This scares me! :)
