Most of you are probably familiar with the ever useful TCP/IP utility
netcat (often /usr/bin/nc).
I'm not sure where netcat came from, I didn't hear about it until a
year or two ago, and only tried it once or twice.
A predecessor (or completely independent) program, ttcp has a similar

Since a server locked up a couple weeks ago yum would just hang
trying to do anything. I decided to tackle it today.
Doing an strace revealed the hang was after opening the files in /var/
lib/rpm and yum was waiting on a futex() call.
To make a long story short, it turns out RPM uses a

The fact that some process is blocked in futex() is probably

When I type import Cheetah in Python, I don't know what debian
