Netcat is a featured networking utility which reads and writes data across
|
|
network connections, using the TCP/IP protocol.
|
|
|
|
It is designed to be a reliable "back-end" tool that can be used directly
|
|
or easily driven by other programs and scripts. At the same time, it is a
|
|
feature-rich network debugging and exploration tool, since it can create
|
|
almost any kind of connection you would need and has several interesting
|
|
built-in capabilities.
|
|
|
|
This package contains the OpenBSD rewrite of netcat, including support
|
|
for IPv6, proxies, and Unix sockets. The installed binary is named
|
|
"nc.openbsd" and the manpage is as well.
