I'm using a similar onlyif in 0.24.6 and it's working correctly for me.
Looking at your code, the only thing I can see that might cause it to
fail is the path. 'nc' is usually under '/usr/bin', so with the path
set to just '/bin' the onlyif command wouldn't run successfully, if
that's the case on your clients?
