Description Jeremy Harris 2017-08-07 11:24:47 UTC
Description of problem:
 Missing a description of "Timer" output


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
  net-tools-2.0-0.40.20160329git.fc25.x86_64

How reproducible:
  100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man netstat


Actual results:

   Timer
       (this needs to be written)



Expected results:
  (some useful info)

Additional info:

 2012-vintage info, unverified:
   http://vzkernel.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/description-of-netstat-timers.html

  The useful section:
  1. The 1st field indicates when the timer will expire
  2. The 2nd field is the retransmits which already have done
  3. The 3rd field - for a synreq socket(not yet established) and a timewait socket it's always 0, for a established socket it's 'unanswered 0 window probes'

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2017-11-16 18:34:33 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '25'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Jeremy Harris 2017-11-21 11:05:03 UTC
Issue still exists on f27.
