Netcat is intended to be a reliable back-end tool which can be used directly or easily driven by other programs and scripts. Netcat is also a feature-rich network debugging and exploration tool, since it can create many different connections and has many built-in capabilities. You may want to install the netcat package if you are administering a network and you'd like to use its debugging and network exploration capabilities. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: An updated version of netcat fixing connection related issues. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Apr 11 2011 Petr Sabata <[email protected]> - 1.100-2 - Include libbsd stdlib, rhbz#694407 - Use %zd format for size_t * Tue Mar 8 2011 Petr Sabata <[email protected]> - 1.100-1 - Update to current upstream - Moving from glib to libbsd - Including __b64_ntop() implementation taken from nsd - Patches cleanup (most included upstream now) * Tue Mar 1 2011 Petr Sabata <[email protected]> - 1.84-26 - Spec cleanup, removed buildroot garbage * Tue Feb 8 2011 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 1.84-25 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_15_Mass_Rebuild * Wed Oct 20 2010 Ville Skytta <[email protected]> - 1.84-24 - Own the %{_datadir}/nc dir. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #694407 - netcats fails to connect on i386 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=694407 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
