Hello Tim,
netasst under Linux is known to crash sometimes. Take a look at google, there are plenty of posts about it.
I found no working solution for this problem in the past. Depending on your needs, maybe you can run netca for basic configuration and edit the other needed
ascii files with an editor. Detailed description of the parameters and their settings are in the net8 admin guide. http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/network.817/a76933/toc.htm

Hope that helps, additions, corrections and further info are always welcome
