I have just uploaded to CPAN a new release of the libnet distribution.

All reported bugs should be fixed in this release

Here are the changes from the ChangeLog file

	o Release 1.01
	o Started to add ESMTP support into Net::SMTP
	o Added a fix to Net::FTP::login for firewalls that do not
	  prefix the connection replies with 331 codes
	o Net::NNTP::new: Changed the default host code to check the
	  env. variables NNTPSERVER and NEWSHOST before defaulting to `news'
	o Modified all non-RFC977 methods to conform to an un-released
	  draft RFC by S. Barber of Academ Consulting Services
	o Net::FTP::new will now pass Timeout => 0 to IO::Socket
	o There seems to be a problem with the 2nd accept on the listen
	  socket. Added a work-around which forces the creation of a new
	  listen socket per PORT call
	o Added mdtm and size methods to Net::FTP
	o Modified Net::Netrc to skip ownership check for OS/2, as OS/2's
	  implementation of stat is not compatible with this check
	o Net::FTP::get now returns the local filename upon success
	o Net::FTP::get now returns true if the get was a sucess
	o Net::FTP::get only creates local file if RETR command
	  succeeds
	o Changed Net::Cmd::CMD_PENDING to '0' as SNPP uses codes > 5
	o Added Net::DummyInetd
	o Changed CMD_PENDING to be 0 instead of 9, this is due to
	  Net::SNPP using status codes > 5
	o Release 1.01
	o Started to add ESMTP support into Net::SMTP
	o Added a fix to Net::FTP::login for firewalls that do not
	  prefix the connection replies with 331 codes
	o Net::NNTP::new: Changed the default host code to check the
	  env. variables NNTPSERVER and NEWSHOST before defaulting to `news'

It should be avaliable on mirror sites soon.

Comments are always very welcome.
