.SH "NAME"
Net::Config \- Local configuration data for libnet
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\&    use Net::Config qw(%NetConfig);
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Net::Config\*(C'\fR holds configuration data for the modules in the libnet
distribution. During installation you will be asked for these values.
.PP
The configuration data is held globally in a file in the perl installation
tree, but a user may override any of these values by providing their own. This
can be done by having a \f(CW\*(C`.libnetrc\*(C'\fR file in their home directory. This file
should return a reference to a \s-1HASH\s0 containing the keys described below.
For example
.PP
.Vb 6
\&    # .libnetrc
\&    {
\&        nntp_hosts => [ "my_preferred_host" ],
\&        ph_hosts   => [ "my_ph_server" ],
\&    }
\&    _\|_END_\|_
.Ve
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
\&\f(CW\*(C`Net::Config\*(C'\fR defines the following methods. They are methods as they are
invoked as class methods. This is because \f(CW\*(C`Net::Config\*(C'\fR inherits from
\&\f(CW\*(C`Net::LocalCfg\*(C'\fR so you can override these methods if you want.
.IP "requires_firewall ( \s-1HOST\s0 )" 4
.IX Item "requires_firewall ( HOST )"
Attempts to determine if a given host is outside your firewall. Possible
return values are.
.Sp
.Vb 3
\&  \-1  Cannot lookup hostname
\&   0  Host is inside firewall (or there is no ftp_firewall entry)
\&   1  Host is outside the firewall
.Ve
.Sp
This is done by using hostname lookup and the \f(CW\*(C`local_netmask\*(C'\fR entry in
the configuration data.

If you have an \s-1FTP\s0 proxy firewall (\fB\s-1NOT\s0\fR an \s-1HTTP\s0 or \s-1SOCKS\s0 firewall)
then this value should be set to the firewall hostname. If your firewall
does not listen to port 21, then this value should be set to

.PD 0
.IP "ftp_int_passive" 4
.IX Item "ftp_int_passive"
.PD
\&\s-1FTP\s0 servers can work in passive or active mode. Active mode is when
you want to transfer data you have to tell the server the address and
port to connect to.  Passive mode is when the server provide the
address and port and you establish the connection.
.Sp
With some firewalls active mode does not work as the server cannot
connect to your machine (because you are behind a firewall) and the firewall
does not re-write the command. In this case you should set \f(CW\*(C`ftp_ext_passive\*(C'\fR
to a \fItrue\fR value.
.Sp
Some servers are configured to only work in passive mode. If you have
one of these you can force \f(CW\*(C`Net::FTP\*(C'\fR to always transfer in passive
mode; when not going via a firewall, by setting \f(CW\*(C`ftp_int_passive\*(C'\fR to
a \fItrue\fR value.
.IP "local_netmask" 4
.IX Item "local_netmask"
A reference to a list of netmask strings in the form \f(CW"134.99.4.0/24"\fR.
These are used by the \f(CW\*(C`requires_firewall\*(C'\fR function to determine if a given
host is inside or outside your firewall.
.PP
The following entries are used during installation & testing on the
libnet package
.IP "test_hosts" 4
.IX Item "test_hosts"
If true then \f(CW\*(C`make test\*(C'\fR may attempt to connect to hosts given in the
configuration.
.IP "test_exists" 4
.IX Item "test_exists"
If true then \f(CW\*(C`Configure\*(C'\fR will check each hostname given that it exists
