Description

scotty - network management extensions to tcl

scotty is a tcl extension which allows to set up TCP and UDP connections, to send various ICMP packets, to query the domain name system (DNS), to check clock screw using the NTP protocol and to query various SUN RPC services (like rstat and mountd).

Included in this package is an interface to SNMPv1 and SNMPv2. The SNMP stack was written from scratch to provide an efficient and portable tcl SNMP extension. MIB extensions can be written in tcl by running the scotty extension as an SNMP agent. This allows you to implement your own specific MIB without getting in contact with the lowlevel ASN.1/BER stuff.

tkined, a very nice graphical network monitoring tool based on scotty is available as pkgsrc/net/tkined.

*: add LDFLAGS overide that was previously in mk

This is a workaround and should be fixed properly per-package - they should use the pkgsrc LDFLAGS, but this restores what happened before the mk/ cleanup. Fixes relro build for packages that do not honor LDFLAGS. Package list provided by mef@, thanks! Workaround commit requested by bsiegert on tech-pkg.
