getnetent
setnetent
STAYOPEN
endnetent
These functions do the same thing as their like-named system library routines - see getnetent (3). They iterate through your /etc/networks file, or moral equivalent. The return value in list context is:
($name, $aliases, $addrtype, $net)
In scalar context, getnetent returns only the network name.
