December 2018 - First release of NetWorker2 Internet exploring utility

Networker2 is an Internet exploration tool, that builds on the
functionality of the original NetWorker application. In addition to its
original function, now named Explorer, NetWorker2 adds new Ping, Lookup,
Traceroute, Whois, and Port Scan functions.

1. Ping shows you the latency of the return journey when accessing a
target host.
2. Lookup makes forward and reverse lookups of domain names.
3. Traceroute shows you the route your packets travel on the way to a
target host.
4. Whois looks up domain registry information for a domain name.
5. Port Scan makes a security check for open ports on a target server.
6. Explorer has a twin window display, which lets you work at the lowest
level of the Internet, opening specified ports, and then retrieves data
from them. It is handy if you just want to explore the commands you
might need to access a host, and what responses you might expect.
Networker2 allows two ports to be open at once, showing the responses in
a split window. You can construct up to four Command files, that will
show in the Net Commands menu. This makes it easier to send repetitive
commands for the Explorer function.

Get NetWorker2 from my web site: https://speccie.uk/software/networker2

Is NetWorker2 just for the Apple IIGS, like the rest of the stuff on your wesite, or does it work on older Apple II computers, too?

James,

As Antoine has said, NetWorker2 is for the IIgs, as is most of my
software.

However, not everything on my web site is for the IIgs, as my earlier
programs like Chameleon, Antelope, and Gazelle, are for the Apple ][ or
//e, and the TABBS Library Archive holds a great deal of Apple II
software.

In addtion, the Apple2000 & BASUG magazine archives, and the Shareware
Solutions II magazine archives, cover both computers.
