Author: owagner@vapor.com
Uploader: owagner@vapor.com
Version: 2.10
Type: comm/tcp
Kurz: GUI Traceroute/PING/Network-Info-Anzeiger
Long:
NetInfo II is a network information viewer utility. It integrates
the functionality of the well known standalone TRACEROUTE, PING, WHOIS
and FINGER programs into a seamless GUI application.
Features
--------
- "quick traceroute": Sends a series of packet in quick
succession to get a route overview very fast, then
does accurate timings for the individual hops
- "ping": Sends a sequence of ICMP ECHO packets to a host
to measure network latency and stability.
- graphical display of hop min/last/max timings for
TRACE
- graphical display of ping times for PING
- integrated smart WHOIS function: double-click on
a IP, Host or Network column to automatically receive
WHOIS information for the given object. NetInfo
determines the WHOIS host to query.
- automatically retrieves WHOIS network information
for hosts
- automatically scans destination host for Web (HTTP) and FTP
server versions
- history for all queried hosts
- integrated FINGER client
- integrated "classical" WHOIS client with on-disk cache
- ARexx port

Requirements

NetInfo is (C) 1997-2001 Oliver Wagner <owagner@vapor.com>, All Rights
Reserved.
NetInfo works with Genesis, Miami, Roadshow and AmiTCP.
"socket.library"-based TCP/IP stacks (as225r2 etc.) are not supported, and
the traceroute functionality won't work with SOCKS (whois and finger will,
though).
NetInfo uses MUI 3.8 and the "NList" list classes by Gilles Masson.
