Also affects Fedora 14 nc-1.100-1.fc14.i686
Just noticed that the x86_64 version does not have the same problem.
(In reply to comment #2) > Also affects Fedora 14 > > nc-1.100-1.fc14.i686 I cannot reproduce this with nc-1.100-1.fc14.i686 (that one has different issues -- see bug 694407).
1.100-2.fc15 seems to fix this issue (at least it works for me): https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/nc-1.100-2.fc15 Could you test the update?
nc-1.100-2.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/nc-1.100-2.fc15
For Fedora 14 this resolves the problem for me nc.i686 0:1.100-2.fc14 (from updates-testing)
This resolves my issue in f15 alpha as well - using nc as an ssh proxy works as expected. Thanks for the help.
Fixed with nc-1.100-2.fc15 update
nc-1.100-2.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
