6<para>If you don't know what to answer to all the questions asked during the
7<userinput>make config</userinput> phase below, then just accept the defaults.
8This will be just fine in the majority of cases. What you're asked here is a
9bunch of questions about which network protocols you've enabled in your
10kernel. The default answers will enable the tools from this package to work
11with the most common protocols: TCP, PPP, and several others. You still need
12to actually enable these protocols in the kernel -- what you do here is merely
13telling the package to include support for those protocols in its programs,
14but it's up to the kernel to make the protocols available.</para>
