# Source Code Availability

This book uses many publicly available software packages. This appendix provides additional details on how to obtain this software.

The technique used to obtain this software is called anonymous FTP, where FTP is the standard Internet File Transfer Protocol (Chapter 27). Section 27.3 shows an example of anonymous FTP. For a background on Internet resources in general, and specifically anonymous FTP, refer to any of the recently available books on the Internet, such as [LaQuey 1993] or [Krol 1992].

The hosts listed here are believed to be the primary site where the package is available. There may be many other sites where the software is also available. The Internet Archie service can locate additional versions. Also, the versions listed below are the ones used for the examples in the text.

Newer versions may have been released by the time you read this.

You should use the FTP `dir` command to see if newer versions exist on that specified host.

This appendix is ordered by the chapter or section number where the resource was used in this text.

#### RFCs (Section 1.11)

Section 1.11 provides the electronic mail address to send a request to. The reply details numerous sites from which the RFCs can be obtained using either e-mail or anonymous FTP.

Remember that the starting place is to obtain the current index and look up the RFC that you want in the index. This entry tells you if that RFC has been obsoleted or updated by a newer RFC.

#### BSD Net/2 Source Code (Section 1.14)

The BSD Net/2 source code, which includes the kernel implementation of the TCP/IP protocols, along with the standard utilities (Telnet client and server, FTP client and server, etc.), is available from `ftp.uu.net` in the directory tree starting at `systems/unix/bsd-sources`.

#### SLIP (Section 2.4)

The version of SLIP used in this text is available from `ftp.ee.lbl.gov`. The filename begins with `cslip`, since it supports compressed SLIP (Section 2.5).

#### `traceroute` Program (Chapter 8)

The traceroute program is available from `ftp.ee.lbl.gov`. Refer to the final entry of this section for the version used in Section 8.5 that allows loose and strict source routing.

#### Router Discovery Daemon (Section 9.6)

A program is available that provides host support and router support for the router discovery messages. The host is `gregorio.stanford.edu` and the file is `gw-discovery/nordmark-rdisc.tar`. The program was written by Sun Microsystems and made publicly available.

#### BIND Name Server (Chapter 14)

The BIND name server, the named daemon, is available from the host `ftp.uu.net` in the file `networking/ip/dns/bind/bind.4.8.3.tar.Z`.

A newer version, 4.9, is available from `gatekeeper.dec.com` in the directory `pub/BSD/bind/4.9`.

#### `host` Program (Chapter 14)

The `host` program is available from the host `nikhefh.nikhef.nl` in the file `host.tar.Z`.

#### `dig` and `doc` Programs (Chapter 14)

The `dig` and `doc` programs mentioned in Chapter 14 are available from the host `isi.edu` in the files `dig.2.0.tar.Z` and `doc.2.0.tar.Z`.

#### BOOTP Server (Chapter 16)

Various versions of the commonly used Unix BOOTP server are available from the host `lancaster.andrew.emu.edu`, in the `pub` directory.

#### TCP High-Speed Extensions (Chapter 24)

A publicly available source code implementation of the TCP window scale option, time-stamp option, and PAWS algorithm is available as a set of patches to the BSD Net/2 release from the host `uxc.cso.uiuc.edu` in the file `pub/tcplw.shar.Z`.

#### ISODE SNMP Manager and Agent (Chapter 25)

The SNMP manager and agent described in Section 25.7 are part of the ISODE 8.0 distribution. This is available from many FTP archive sites, such as `ftp.uu.net` in the `networking/osi/isode` directory.

#### MIME Software and Examples (Section 28.4)

A program named MetaMail that provides MIME capabilities for many different user agents is available on the host `thumper.bellcore.com` in the `pub/nsb` directory. Also in this directory is additional information on MIME.

#### Sun RPC (Section 29.2)

A version of the RPC 4.0 sources (which use the sockets API) is available from the host `ftp.uu.net` in the `systems/sun/sextape/rpc4.0` directory. A version of the TI-RPC sources (which use the TLI API) is available from the host ftp.uu.net in the `networking/rpc` directory.

#### Sun NFS (Chapter 29)

A publicly available implementation of an NFS client and server is provided as part of the BSD Net/2 Source Code described earlier in this appendix.

#### `tcpdump` Program (Appendix A)

The version of `tcpdump` used in this text is from the host `ftp.ee.lbl.gov` in the file `tcpdump-2.2.1.tar.Z`.

#### BSD Packet Filter (Section A.1)

The BSD packet filter is part of the `tcpdump` distribution.

#### `sock` Program (Appendix C)

Refer to the final entry of this section.

#### `ttcp` Program

(This program was not used in the text, but is a useful tool of which readers should be aware.) `ttcp` is a benchmarking tool for measuring TCP and UDP performance between two systems. It was created at the U.S. Army Ballistics Research Lab (BRL) and is in the public domain. Copies are available from many anonymous FTP sites but an enhanced version is available from `ftp.sgi.com` in the directory `sgi/src/ttcp`.

#### Author-Written Software

The author-written software used in the book is available from the host `ftp.uu.net` in the file `published/books/stevens.tcpipiv1.tar.Z`.
