Purpose of this software

The core of this daemon sends an email to administrator each time one of the thresholds defined in sniSysParamSeuil.conf file is reached. A little network snifer which aim is to analyse Ethernet 10/100 packets but still light is also added.

Licensing
The snifsysnet is an idea of and is (C) Constantin Yamkoudougou who is the project administrator. This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; Version 2. This guarantees your right to use, modify, and redistribute this software under certain conditions. If this license is unacceptable to you, I may be willing to sell alternative licenses by sending me a mail at yconstantin@users.sourceforge.net .

If you download the project's files with a written license agreement stating terms other than the (GPL) terms above, then that alternative license agreement takes precendence over this comment.

Source is provided to this software because I believe users have a right to know exactly what a program is going to do before they run it. This also allows you to audit the software for security holes.

Source code also allows you to port snifsysnet to new platforms, fix bugs, and add new features. You are highly encouraged to send your changes to constantin.yamknaz@free.fr for possible incorporation into the main distribution. By sending me these changes , it is assumed that I have the unlimited, non-exclusive right to reuse, modify, and relicense the code. This is important because the inability to relicense code has caused devastating problems for other Free Software projects (such as KDE and NASM). snifsysnet will always be available Open Source. If you wish to specify special license conditions of your contributions, just say so when you send them.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html ).
