## インストール挙動

- post-install フック: 未定義
- 注意点: sntop uses fping by default and fping can only be run by root by default. You can run `sudo sntop` (or `sntop -p` which uses standard ping). You should be certain that you trust any software you grant root privileges.

## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

sntop is a small ncurses, top-like monitor for checking whether configured network hosts are reachable. It is a SourceForge-era Unix utility: simple C code, terminal UI, fping/ping underneath, and package-manager availability for administrators who want a lightweight status board.

### プロジェクトの歴史

The official project site credits Robert M. Love and Chris M. Rivera and describes sntop as an ncurses-based console utility for monitoring host connectivity. It uses fping, with ping as a supported fallback, and displays results in a top-like format.

SourceForge's files page lists sntop 1.4.3 as a release from November 2001, placing the tool in the early-2000s wave of small Unix admin utilities distributed through SourceForge tarballs, RPMs, and Debian packages.

### 採用の歴史

The input records Homebrew, Debian, and Ubuntu packages. SourceForge's file tree also includes source, source RPM, i386 RPM, and Debian-package areas, showing that sntop was packaged for multiple Unix/Linux consumption styles.

### 使われ方

Administrators configure hosts, then use sntop to poll them at intervals and view their status in a terminal. The official page also mentions HTML generation, secure terminal mode, color support, daemon mode, and running external files when a host changes state or goes down.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

Package nerds care because sntop is exactly the kind of tiny operational tool that survives through distro recipes: it wraps existing primitives like fping in a curses display, has almost no conceptual overhead, and remains useful on servers where a full monitoring stack would be excessive.

### タイムライン

- 2001: SourceForge files page lists sntop 1.4.3 released.
- 2000s: SourceForge distribution includes source tarballs plus RPM and Debian packaging areas.
- 2026: Input package-manager facts list Homebrew, Debian, and Ubuntu packages.

### Related projects

- Related tools include fping, ping, top-style terminal monitors, and larger network monitoring systems.
