Collect data
  - mailed to a special address (netlint@netlint.sac.fedex.com) that gets
	sent to netlint-update, which will update the host report in
	/var/netlint
  - record the current stats; keep a database of the current update and
	one update into the past (so we can see what's changed)

Differences to report
  - generate a report to post to news with diffs
    - raw diffs; 'diff -u hostname.old hostname' (or report if we have no
	old reports)
  - generate a general status report to put on the web:
    - _all_ current errors
    - _all_ current interfaces (with links to peg maybe?)
    - hosts we didn't receive mail from (down? broken mailer config?)

Crontab should run sometime between 0200-0300 on monday morning (varied so
netlint.sac doesn't get bombarded with mail).  At 0600, generate reports.

monitor's crontab:
M=`jot -r 1 0 59`
$M 2 * * 1 /usr/local/libexec/netlint | mail -s "NETLINT: `/bin/hostname`" netlint@netlint.sac.fedex.com
(note: "mail" should be "mailx" on Solaris & HP-UX 11)
(it may run as "nobody" from /etc/crontab on FreeBSD)
