Please note that the features of ifscout are in the process of being integrated into guessnet by the intrepid Enrico Zini. The work is not yet complete; the guessnet release in sid (0.21) is broken and lacks some important features. However, once the work is done, guessnet will work like ifscout, only faster. :) -- Thomas Hood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
