<title>Installation of Net-tools</title>

|
|
<note>
|
|
<para>The <application>Net-tools</application> package installs a
|
|
<command>hostname</command> program which will overwrite the existing program
|
|
installed by <application>Coreutils</application> during a base
|
|
LFS installation. If, for whatever reason, you need to
|
|
reinstall the <application>Coreutils</application> package after installing
|
|
<application>Net-tools</application>, you should use the
|
|
<filename>coreutils-&lfs-coreutils-version;-suppress_hostname_uptime_kill_su-1.patch</filename>
|
|
patch if you wish to preserve the <application>Net-tools</application>
|
|
<command>hostname</command> program.</para>
|
|
</note>
|
|
|
|
<para>The instructions below automate the configuration process by piping
|
|
<command>yes</command> to the <command>make config</command> command. If
|
|
you wish to run the interactive configuration process (by changing the
|
|
instruction to just <command>make config</command>), but you are not sure
|
|
how to answer all the questions, then just accept the defaults. This will
|
|
be just fine in the majority of cases. What you're asked here is a bunch of
|
|
questions about which network protocols you've enabled in your kernel. The
|
|
default answers will enable the tools from this package to work with the
|
|
most common protocols: TCP, PPP, and several others. You still need to
|
|
actually enable these protocols in the kernel—what you do here is
|
|
merely tell the package to include support for those protocols in its
|
|
programs, but it's up to the kernel to make the protocols available.</para>
