Network Communicator is a simple script for sending and receiving data over TCP/UDP connections.

It can be useful for testing firewall configurations, routing tables, and similar things.

I had originally written two scripts for testing TCP only: a talker and a listener. Upon failure to properly modify them to support UDP only, I made Netcom. It allows the sending and receiving of TCP or UDP data to arbitrary IPs/Ports and optional from/to files.

I'm sure there are already tools like this out there like netcat, but wasn't able to get netcat working properly for UDP also. Either way, here you go and enjoy!

Launch Netcom with no options to view the usage.

What's New in This Release:
A complete re-write to support arbitrary source/destination and port forwarding (not tunneling).
