For your own environment, sure - you only need the one you use. These utilities are tools that made their way into lots of user's toolboxes. I get quite frustrated when I find a system missing basic utilities like traceroute, iostat, vmstat, telnet.. Configuration management fixes this in my own environment. It's unfortunate distro maintainers have decided to drop some of these basic utilities from the default server install package selections. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
