nc (netcat) in 10.1 breaks after upgrade from 9.3
nc (netcat) in 10.1 behaves differently than it was before upgrade and breaks our scripts for monitoring services. For example, following command works in FreeBSD 8.4 and 9.3 echo stats | nc localhost 11211 But it hangs in 10.1 at the END and never finishes. It must be changed to: echo stats | nc -N localhost 11211 Is it intentional?

Yes, this was introduced by upstream: http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/nc/netcat.c#rev1.111 Don't shutdown nc(1)'s network socket when stdin closes. Matches *Hobbit*'s original netcat and GNU netcat; revert to old behaviour with the new -N flag if needed. -Dimitry signature.asc Description: Message signed with OpenPGP using GPGMail

OK, thank you for your reply and sorry for the noise. :) Miroslav Lachman ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
