There is an extremely handy program on freeBSD called netcat (actually program name is "nc", but it is not Night Commander), that allows you to pipe through socket connections. Does anyone know of a similar Linux program ? If not I may just port it... thanks Cliff
Yep, it's called netcat... installable from the SuSE CD's (at least with 6.4). The program name is netcat, not nc on Linux

the same program exists on linux. i believe it even exists in the default suse distribution. i am not connected right now (writing offline) but you should find it either with yast or at rpmfind.net martin [greetings from the heart of the sun]# echo madduck@!#:1:s@\@@@.net -- as of next week, passwords will be entered in morse code.
