This is the User::Net user information class. This class encapsulates a generic network user. All internally stored network user information is accessed through an instantiation of this user object.
A new User::Net object must be created with the new method. Once this has been done, all user information is accessed through this object.
The User::Net is a sub-class of User:Base.
This is the constructor for the User::Base object. A new user object will be automagically initialized from the Zero Knowledge network specific parameter files.
