Description:

NetComponents, is an Internet protocol suite Java library originally
developed by ORO, Inc. This version supports Finger, Whois, TFTP,
Telnet, POP3, FTP, NNTP, SMTP, and some miscellaneous protocols like
Time and Echo as well as BSD R command support. The purpose of the
library is to provide fundamental protocol access, not higher-level
abstractions. Therefore, some of the design violates object-oriented
design principles. Our philosophy is to make the global functionality
of a protocal accesible (e.g., TFTP send file and receive file) when
possible, but also provide access to the fundamental protocols where
applicable so that the programmer may construct his own custom
implementations (e.g, the TFTP packet classes and the TFTP packet
send and receive methods are exposed).
