$
It tells where the old configuration file was found (if found).
The "-h" option will show a usage message.
To change the configuration you will need to use either the "-c" or the "-d" options.
The default name of the old configuration file is by default "libnet.cfg", unless otherwise specified using
the -i option, "-i oldfile", and it is searched first from the current directory, and then from your module
path.
The default name of the new configuration file is "libnet.cfg", and by default it is written to the current
directory, unless otherwise specified using the -o option, "-o newfile".
