Hi,

netselect is pretty agressive at the moment: it consider a few host 
as "unreachable" even if they are alive and kicking (because of its probe 
implementation and so on).

I've been working on a patch to make it display these "unreachable" (but 
valid) 
hosts this way:

Here, www.no-ip.com is alive, but netselect don't think so:
./netselect  www.no-ip.com www.yahoo.fr
   99 www.yahoo.fr

Now with the new -u (show unreachable) arg:
./netselect -u www.no-ip.com www.yahoo.fr
  103 www.yahoo.fr
999999999 www.no-ip.com

the "unreachable" hosts are displayed on bottom with a very poor (and 
specific) 
score of 999999999.
So in liburl we can still try these hosts on last resort (like when all 
better 
hosts doesn't have the file we need).

Bye,
Mat.
