netkit-base-0.10-38 RPM for i386

From Best Linux 2000 R2 CD-ROM

The netkit-base package contains the basic networking tools ping and
inetd.  The ping command sends a series of ICMP protocol ECHO_REQUEST
packets to a specified network host and can tell you if that machine
is alive and receiving network traffic.  Inetd listens on certain
Internet sockets for connection requests, decides what program should
receive each request, and starts up that program.

The netkit-base package should be installed on any machine that is on
a network.
