Very nice holidays

I was drunk since Friday.

Scan with Netcat

nc(1) can be used for simple and fast network scan. Here is sample of localhost scan (ports range: 1-1024).

$ nc -v -z 127.0.0.1 1-1024
localhost [127.0.0.1] 80 (www) open
localhost [127.0.0.1] 25 (smtp) open
localhost [127.0.0.1] 22 (ssh) open

PATCH: DWL-G630 support

Secure Surfing from public place

Use OpenSSH port forwarding to browse web from public place.

ssh(1) can act as a SOCKS server. SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported. All you need is shell access to remote machine.

Example:

ssh -D 4545 user@IP

Now you can specify “localhost” as SOCKS host and “4545” as SOCKS port in connections settings of your browser.
