HOWTO : Netcat on Ubuntu Desktop 12.04 LTS
Netcat is a featured networking utility which reads and writes data across network connections, using the TCP/IP protocol.
It is designed to be a reliable "back-end" tool that can be used directly or easily driven by other programs and scripts. At the same time, it is a feature-rich network debugging and exploration tool, since it can create almost any kind of connection you would need and has several interesting built-in capabilities.

Step 2 :
To run it.
Remarks :
Please do not delete the built-in netcat-openbsd as it will also delete the ubuntu-mininal package at the same time. Your compiled netcat is different to the built-in one.
That's all! See you.
