Debug output looks like

    echo "`date`\f\c" | netcat -d -hspot -p9100
    Host: spot
    Port: 9100
    gethostbyname(spot)=0x408b10
    ip = 192.168.200.207
    socket()=4
    connect()=0

    >(s0)(r29)(s4)(w29)
    >(s0)(r0)EOF from 0--disconnecting

This means

Lone-Tar Backup and Disaster Recovery
for Linux and Unix

• Host is "spot"
• Port is 9100
• gethostbyname() succeeded and returned (struct hostent *)0x408b10 This value is useless except that a return of 0x0 means we were not able to resolve the host name. In which case you should also see a more descriptive message.
• Host name resolved to ip 192.168.200.207
• Network socket (file descriptor) is 4
• Connect was successfull
• 1) Read 29 bytes from socket 0 (stdin) and write 29 bytes to socket 4 (net)
• 2) Read zero bytes from socket 0 (stdin)... EOF, done

• netcat.c
• gzip'ed ELF binary (dynamic libraries) (cc -O -belf -onetcat netcat.c -lsocket)
• gzip'ed COFF binary (static libraries) (cc -O -onetcat netcat.c -lsocket)
