Exnett is great, it brings the word examine to mind, but you might
have to forever explain the second t.<br>
<br>
NetBasher is also a close second, but makes me think the tool is
destructive in some way.<br>
<br>
I also like netpert or nexpert, but maybe they're too close to <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetExpert">netexpert</a> or
netperf itself.<br>
<br>
netpert - network performance test<br>
<br>
nexpert - network extensible performance test<br>
<br>
Good luck with your decision!<br>
<br>
p.s. I keep getting the following stuck in my head as well, netpow
and netpewpew (laser cats reference), but they might be difficult to
say with a straight face :)<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi everyone
The Great Renaming (of netperf-wrapper) has now entered its final phase
(i.e., I have to make a decision now). There's a couple of contenders
for a new name, see below. I'd like some feedback on which you prefer. A
simple "This one!" is fine, but reasoning about why is also appreciated,
of course :)
So, without further ado, the contenders are:
- "ENT: The Extensible Network Tester".
Possible name clash: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://packages.debian.org/sid/ent">https://packages.debian.org/sid/ent</a>
- "Exnett: The EXtensible NETwork Tester"
Avoids the name clash; the second t is important for this.
- "Flent: The Flexible Network Tester"
'Flent' is also the sound a bufferbloated network makes when subjected
to testing :)
- "NetBasher"
For the first three, the abbreviation would probably be the everyday
name, name of the executable, etc, with the expansion added in
descriptions where appropriate.
Please comment by Thursday, as I have a deadline for something that
needs to include the name then...
Thanks in advance! :)
