There are some ports that are both clients and servers (i.e. isc-dhcp2 has a DHCP client and a DHCP server in it). I think that Satoshi's original idea of breaking it up into subcategories would be better... Here's a thought: net-atalk: cap macipgw netatalk (net-dir is Network Directory services) net-dir: archie ascend-radius bind8 dnswalk gnu-finger hesiod ldap nslint p5-Archie p5-Net-DNS p5-Net-Whois radius radiusd-cistron tac_plus xarchie (Ethernet related stuff) net-enet: arpwatch choparp clog isc-dhcp isc-dhcp2 net-ftp: cftp ftpfind ftpsearch ftptool lftp llnlxftp moxftp ncftp ncftp2 ncftp3 proftpd wu-ftpd yale-tftpd llnlxdir mirror omi spegla net-irc: bitchx bnc icb irc ircII ircd-hybrid-5 ircii-epic kirc sirc tkirc zircon sic yagirc net-mud: dgd dgd-lpmud dgd-net pmf tintin++ tinyfugue net-ping: bing echoping fping net-dialup: dip pppload slirp net-misc: SSLtelnet am-utils bb cnet cvsup cvsup-bin cvsup-mirror cvsupd-bin delegate dict freewais-sf fspclient gated gopher icmpinfo ivs kdenetwork ksamba libsocket++ licq micq mpd mpich mrt mrtg netcat netpipes nettest ntimelord ntop ntp p5-Net p5-Net-Telnet p5-SNMP p5-pRPC pcnfsd ratoolset rdist6 ripetools rmsg rshell rsync rwhois samba scotty sendfile sharity-light smbtcpdump sniffit socks5 strobe sup tcpshow tcptrace telnetx traceroute trafshow ttt ucd-snmp vnc vncjava wais wget wide-dhcp xicq xipmsg ytalk zebra zephyr ztelnet That breaks thought down a bit more... Possible other categories: net-nfs net-telnet net-libs net-icq net-time net-samba net-socks However a lot of these categories are smaller... Oh well.
