PMFJI,

Between Cyg 1.5 and 1.7 the command-line interface changed on the "nc"
utility and, from the point of view of someone who at the time did not
read this list, it was a silent, breaking change. So I would not be
surprised if OP had a situation where recompiling an old version was
best.


the change in nc had nothing to do with cygwin
change between 1.5 and 1.7
