Fair enough, I've not got that version to test.

Robin,

Understood.



However, ‘ncat -nlv <port#>’ does not work with the same message.



Both variations worked in other versions, but in 7.25BETA2 is appears that
the -l parameter is being ignored.

If you are trying to set up a listener then you don't need the -p, that is
to specify the source port:



$ ncat -lnv 8080

Ncat: Version 7.01SVN ( https://nmap.org/ncat )

Ncat: Listening on :::8080

Ncat: Listening on 0.0.0.0:8080

Ncat: Connection from 127.0.0.1.

Ncat: Connection from 127.0.0.1:56634.

happens regardless of port number specified.



specifying a local IP results in:

“Ncat:  Connection refused.”



nc works fine, so definitely something connected to Ncat, almost like the
listener module is being completely bypassed or ignored.
