I don't agree; this item is already mentioned in INSTALL (but I
think that it should probably be moved to a README file or
something... INSTALL doesn't seem intuitive) for another set of tests:
iv) Finally, before running the networktests.sh script, two variables must
be set within the script file. The "RHOST" variable should be set to
the hostname of the server. The "PASSWD" variable should be set to
root's password on the server machine. This is necessary for tests
such as telnet01 and ftp01.
All of the applications which require $PASSWD need to be
documented though as this is far from intuitive.
