-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2021-968edd8d33 2021-03-26 17:52:06.072620 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : netcat Product : Fedora 33 Version : 1.217 Release : 3.fc33 URL : https://man.openbsd.org/nc.1 Summary : OpenBSD netcat to read and write data across connections using TCP or UDP 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) might do with some.
