How about this?

PC1:(192.168.1.4)
- -----------------

$ nc -l -p 3500

PC2: (192.168.1.5)
- ------------------

$ nc 192.168.1.4 3500
Hi how are you

PC1 will listen on port 3500 and PC2 will connect to PC1's 3500 port.
This chat will be like old unix's 'write' command chat.

I hope you will try atleast one time to see 'nc' magic.

PS: Guys, A kind request, Don't top post.

Thanks,
Mohan R.
