Too cool!
Now let's see if it actually works as advertised...

Could people please verify this? Redhat 6.0 has it, Mandrake obviously
has it, what about other distros?
On my Redhat 6.0 there's a /sbin/netreport utility too. It writes the
pid of the process calling it to /var/net/netreport.
Is this "netreport" a Redhat specific extension? (Mandrake is derived
from Redhat, AFAIK). The man page is marked "RedHat"...
