'dutmp' is a utility used by the Linux Router Project (as far as I
know nobody else uses it). It dumps the contents of the utmp file in
a format that can be parsed by shell scripts.

'makedevs' is a utility used and created by the Linux Router Project.
It creates a large number of device special files (/dev devices)
rather quickly, and can be considerably faster then running mknod a
zillion times.

The watchdog utility is used with hardware or softwate watchdog
device drivers. It opens the specified watchdog device special file
and periodically writes a magic character to the device. If the
watchdog applet ever fails to write the magic character within a
certain amount of time, the watchdog device assumes that means the
system has hung, and it will therefore cause the hardware to reboot.
