In conducting a pen-test, I have run into a situation where I would like
to transmit data (without using cryptcat) by using OpenSSL and Netcat
through the firewall and past the IDS (nothing but net...heheh..).   Any
tips on how to "play catch" across the network using SSL and netcat on
both the client and the server?  Thanks for the help!

Assuming you can't just use scp, you should try socat. It's netcat++,
and has ssl support. I don't know whether it can be an ssl server,
though.
