Ncat combines the original Netcat +feature set as well as various other ideas from other Netcat-like +products, such as CryptCat, Socat, GNU Netcat, etc. + +Ncat was originally written from the ground up by Chris Gibson +(chris@linuxops.net) and was funded by the Google Summer of Code Program +2005. + +Development, bug fixes, security auditing, improvements by Sean +(infamous42md@hotpop.com). + +Starting with the Google Summer of Code 2008, Ncat development was +picked back up by Mixter and Kris Katterjohn. This included many bug +fixes, new features and code cleanups. + +The Ncat requirements, ideas and general support and help were given by +Fyodor. + +Many helpful comments, suggestions and other useful information was +taken from the nmap-dev list (@insecure.org) as well as other +contributors via email. + +Ncat shares the Nmap infrastructure libraries (Nsock and Nbase) which +were originally written by Fyodor. |
