tcp window size?
not see in manual. Do you talk about "-I length Specifies the size of
the TCP receive buffer."? This is not tcp window size. And for TCP you
can't specify the tcp window size -- this is dynamic value.

This is may right to use or not to use secure or not secure login /
authentication.
Also, I am use telnet login for check kerberos authentication (ssh
kerberos authentication (SSO) broken 10 years ago. nobody care).

% nc -v -D zxy.spb.ru 81
nc: connect to zxy.spb.ru port 81 (tcp) failed: Connection refused
% telnet zxy.spb.ru 81
Trying 195.70.199.98...
telnet: connect to address 195.70.199.98: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

telnet talk about used IP address.
nc -D don't talk any additional info.

I am can use one tool for insecure login, for secure login and for
