    That version in itself had problems as well, they were debugged as you
    call it "years" ago. Terry Dawson issued a patch for that archive its called
    net-tools-1.33.rose.tjd.diff.gz, dont get confused by its name, anyway,
    before you start trying to install them, see first IF you really need them.

    netstat -V
    Will show you the version number of netstat as well as the net-tools
    version. It will also show you supported protocols.
    I would persoanly try the installed utils first before even thinking of
    installing newer versions.

    Like i said in my previous mail, you should really think of upgrading your
    slackware-3.9.
