I think netcat will work: netcat -l -p port.you.wont.to.listen > /home/user/file it will listen for a connection at the specifig port and write the data to the file. After the connection ist stoped the netcat will return. If you wont sevral connections one after another and write it all to the file a script like: #! /bin/bash while [ 1 -lt 2 ] ; do netcat -l -p port.you.wont.to.listen >> /home/user/file done exit 0 will add the data in the file. ingo -- ingo dross infomation/security architecture []___ΒΈ ######-\ O_-_-_O-\
