[26a89c5]6<para>If you don't know what to answer to all the questions asked during
7the <userinput>make</userinput> phase, then just accept the defaults, which
[2c094d6]8will be just fine in the majority of the cases. What you are asked here
[26a89c5]9are a bunch of questions relating to the kind of network protocols that you
10have enabled in your kernel.</para>
11
12<para>The default answers will enable the tools from this package to work
13with the most common protocols such as TCP, PPP and a bunch of others. You
14still need to actually enable these protocols in the kernel. What you do
[a2cd10f]15here is merely telling the programs to be able to use those protocols, but
16it's up to the kernel to make them available to the system.</para>
[26a89c5]17

[7bfad05]22<para>If you intend to accept the default settings, you may skip
[f0fbc98]23the questions generated by <emphasis>make</emphasis> by running
[7bfad05]24<userinput>yes "" | make</userinput> instead.</para>
25
[b7d9d404]26<para>Finish installing the package:</para>

28<para><screen><userinput>make update</userinput></screen></para>
29
30<para>The <emphasis>update</emphasis> option to <userinput>make</userinput>
31works similarly to the <emphasis>install</emphasis> option, with one
[7bfad05]32exception: it doesn't make backups of files it's replacing.</para>
[b7d9d404]33
[7bfad05]34<para>If you decide to reinstall this package at some point in the
35future, a <userinput>make update</userinput> won't backup all the files
36from a previous net-tools installation.</para>
