Spec URL: http://labs.linuxnetz.de/bugzilla/netcat.spec SRPM URL: http://labs.linuxnetz.de/bugzilla/netcat-1.217-2.src.rpm Description: The OpenBSD nc (or netcat) utility can be used for just about anything involving TCP, UDP, or UNIX-domain sockets. It can open TCP connections, send UDP packets, listen on arbitrary TCP and UDP ports, do port scanning, and deal with both IPv4 and IPv6. Unlike telnet(1), nc scripts nicely, and separates error messages onto standard error instead of sending them to standard output, as telnet(1) does with some. Fedora Account System Username: robert

Just a note - this package contains `nc` and `netcat` binaries so it can't be a drop-in replacement for nmap-ncat which provides `nc` and `ncat`.
Ncat is a similar tool to netcat provided by Nmap suite. The first netcat implementation (by *Hobbit*) claims to be "nc" if you lookup the old sources. Red Hat decided a couple of years ago to retire the OpenBSD netcat implementation and make /usr/bin/nc a symlink to nmap-ncat. In order to provide some backwards compatibility, I did not claim "nc" exclusively. I'm not really sure what you would like to say with your comment #19, because e.g. sendmail provides `sendmail` and `sendmail.sendmail`, while postfix provides `sendmail` and `sendmail.postfix`, where `sendmail.postfix` is treated as drop-in replacement, while it actually is not, either...they just share some common options.
