GNU netcat

Netcat is a featured networking utility which reads and writes data across network connections, using the TCP/IP protocol. It is designed to be a reliable "back-end" tool that can be used directly or easily driven by other programs and scripts. At the same time, it is a feature-rich ... [More] network debugging and exploration tool, since it can create almost any kind of connection you would need and has several interesting built-in capabilities. [Less]

socat

Socat is a relay for bidirectional data transfer between two independent data channels. Each of these data channels may be a file, pipe, device (terminal or modem, etc.), socket (Unix, IP4, IP6 - raw, UDP, TCP), SSL, a client for SOCKS4, or proxy CONNECT. It supports broadcasts and multicasts ... [More] , abstract Unix sockets, Linux tun/tap, GNU readline, and PTYs. It provides forking, logging, and dumping and different modes for interprocess communication. Many options are available for tuning socat and its channels. Socat can be used, for example, as a TCP relay (one-shot or daemon), as a daemon-based socksifier, as a shell interface to Unix sockets, as an IP6 relay, or for redirecting TCP-oriented programs to a serial line.

knc

KNC is Kerberised NetCat. It works in basically the same way as either netcat or stunnel except that it is Kerberised. You can use it to construct client/server applications while keeping the Kerberos libraries out of your programs address space quickly and easily.

Netcat

mnc

A netcat-alike for multicast. Supports IPv4 and IPv6 any-source multicast and source-specific multicast. Runs on *nix and win32.

tcpy

A small set of scripts to quickly copy files between the hosts of a network, by using only tcp sockets and the open tar.gz archive format. To download and install these scripts execute the following commands: $ svn checkout http://tcpy.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ tcpy $ cd tcpy $ sudo make ... [More] installYou'll need "netcat6" and "pv", too. On Debian: # apt-get install pv netcat6Example of usage: (Host A: 10.0.0.1) $ scotrecv Listening on port: 1200. Waiting for incoming files... 0B 0:00:00 [ 0B/s ] [ ](Host B) $ scotsend 10.0.0.1 1200 file1.mp3 file2.jpg file1.mp3 file2.jpg 0B 0:00:00 [ 0B/s ] [ ] [Less]

Ncat

Ncat - The culmination of many key features from various Netcat incarnations such as Netcat 1.10, Netcat6, SOcat, Cryptcat, GNU Netcat, etc. Ncat also has a host of new features such as "Connection Brokering", TCP redir (proxying), SOCKS client/server,

netcat SSL

nssl is intended to be a netcat-like program with transparent Secure Socket Layer support, either clear or encrypted sessions can be used. It requires OpenSSL library to be installed.
