[Netkit.users] Support of 802.1x as authenticator in Netkit

[Silvio Lucas]

Julien,

If you want, I have a QoS lab that I did to my students (it's very  
simple).I have a DNSSEC lab that I did too ( it's few old).
If you want, send me a email. :)

Sorry my english (english isn't my mother tongue) :)

Regards,
