# This library is no longer being maintained, and is included for backward
# compatibility with Perl 4 programs which may require it.
# This legacy library is deprecated and will be removed in a future
# release of perl.
#
# In particular, this should not be used as an example of modern Perl
# programming techniques.

# Suggested alternative: Sys::Hostname
