NAME
dnetcat - opens a DECnet connection
SYNOPSIS
dnetcat {-h|--help}
dnetcat [-v] [-z] node[::|[::] ]object
dnetcat [-v] [-f] -l object
DESCRIPTION
dnetcat is a netcat(1) like tool that opens a DECnet connection and
copies all data between the standard input/output to/from the socket.
OPTIONS
-v
Be verbose. Prints useful (debug) messages.
-z
Zero IO mode. In this mode a connection is dropped directly after it is
opened. This can be used to scan if the remote side listens on the
given address and object.
-l
Listen mode. In this mode dnetcat accepts connections on the given
object.
-f
Fork on new connection. This let netcat accept multiple connections in
listen mode. This is ignored if -l is not given.
--help, -h
Prints a small help.
EXAMPLES
This program can be used as ’ProxyCommand’ for ssh(1). You may use it
via command line like this:
ssh -o ’ProxyCommand dnetcat %h ssh’ [...] mynode
or you may use it in your ~/.ssh/config like this:
Host *::
ProxyCommand dnetcat %h ssh
This will enable you to connect to any DECnet node by adding "::" at
the end of the node name like this:
ssh mynode::
For more information on ssh(1) see it’s manpage.
