BTW, the "version required" comment should give the version of the
port (1.02), not the OS version required to compiled this port.... :)

 * From: Matthew Dillon <dillon@apollo.backplane.com>

 *     It's not a network program, though Dima and I have been wanting to give
 *     it over-the-network capabilities beyond using an NFS mount.  While I 
 *     expect sysadmins will use it predominantly, there is nothing special
 *     about it that would prevent users from using it so for now it's in misc.

Sysutils is not for software that are only used by system
administrators.  Anything that falls into "system utilities" can go
there -- and this is certainly one of them, just like (say) lsof.

We are trying not to populate "misc" too much (for obvious reasons)
too.  Please cvs remove it and re-import it in sysutils.
