Netcat being blocked???

[mduddy]

Help me Mr. Wizard!!! I have a problem with Netcat on an SCO Unix server. Trying to send a file across the network and the file is not getting there.

At first we had an intermittent problem where data did not seem to be transferred. Then we found that files were only partially transferred.

Now the server on the other end says the connection is established, but that the transferred file was empty. Our SCO box shows text in the file.

I am an SCO novice and have no idea where to look for the problem.

Can somebody help or tell me where to start looking?

I discovered what the problem was. In the FoxPlus program that runs the netcat command there was apparently too heavy of a memory load at the time the command was run. Saving the environment, closing data, running the command then restoring the environment is working now.
