netcat as a multithread server
- by etuardu
Hello,
I use netcat to run a simple server like this:
while true; do nc -l -p 2468 -e ./my_exe; done
This way, anyone is able to connect to my host on port 2468 and talk with "my_exe".
Unfortunately, if someone else wants to connect during an open session, it would get a "Connection refused" error, because netcat is no longer in listening until the next "while" loop.
Is there a way to make netcat behave like a multithread server, i.e. always in listening for incoming connections? If not, are there some workarounds for this?
Thank you all!
