why does gdomap scan the net?
Hi
The GNUstep prg. gdomap (from gstep-base) scans every 5 min the local net.
I found a reference in the GNUstep-HOWTO that it has something to do with
shared objects which seems to be semi important.
What I don't understand is what the scan is for and how to restrict it.
The HOWTO tells something about a configfile '/etc/gdomap_addresses' which
does not exist.
I'd rather prefere not to get 254 udp packages plus 253 'hostunreachable' icmp
packages every 5 min (plus the syslog telling me about them)
Greetings
