[nsp] Aclmaker 1.03 now available at Sourceforge

[Ed Ravin]

Aclmaker is a Perl script that lets you edit Cisco ACLs as files on
your local system and upload/download them to the router.  It will
also let you pipe the output of router commands through programs
on your machine, or save a local copy of the router configuration.
It normally is used through an existing Telnet session to your router,
but in most cases you can also use it through ssh, Kermit, Kerberos, cu,
tip, or any other communications program.

Aclmaker lives in the "Cisco-centric Open Source Initiative" ('cosi-nms')
project on Sourceforge.  You can download it from SourceForge.net

* documentation on how to use aclmaker through ssh, cu, etc.

* new command "aclmaker diff" to compare a local file to an ACL stored
