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.
