Description
Ncat FOR LINUX
Ncat was developed to facilitate seamless data transfer between hosts. It shares a similar syntax with the 'cat' command, but with the added capability to specify TCP streams alongside regular files.
Key Features:
- Efficient data piping between hosts
- Support for TCP streams
- Simple syntax similar to 'cat' command
- Fast data transfer rates
- Minimum collisions compared to alternative tools
Technical Specifications:
- Free to download
- Includes RPM spec file for easy building
- Compatible with Linux systems
- Allows data backups across LAN
Ncat provides a reliable solution for backing up multiple machines across your LAN directly to a CD without the need for temporary disk space. It ensures minimal collisions during data transfer and maximizes the data transfer rate.
Usage Example:
For real-time printing of a growing logfile from machine one to machine two's lp0 dot matrix printer:
Machine one:
# tail -f logfile | ncat -o :0
ncat: listening on port 3724
Machine two:
# ncat one:3724 > /dev/lp0
If machine two is slow and log processing needs to be done on machine one:
Machine one:
# ncat :4321 | analyze
Machine two:
# ncat -o one:4321 example.log
For more detailed information about the command, refer to the ncat(1) manual.
