Merged Debian port of the OpenBSD rewrite of netcat(nc), including support for IPv6, proxies, and Unix sockets.

Because GNU netcat doesn't support -x proxy option, it is hard to use ssh ProxyCommand nc -x localhost:1080 %h %p on an ancient linux distribution such as CentOS 4.3. Debian has ported the OpenBSD rewrite of netcat to Linux. It is a little complicated to use or find the source code, so here I created this repo.

1. Modify build.sh PREFIX

# Where do you want to put nc in to
PREFIX=/usr/local
# Your libbsd dev lib install path
BSD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
BSD_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include

2. Then

$ bash ./build.sh
