Recently I was desperately seaching for socat for windows, for some corporate security issues.
The only one I found was follwing cygwin build version of original unix socat.
But it was very unstable and buggy... All my keep-alive socket connections kept being hang or lost.
And yesterday, I happened to find your project and tried to replace the sh*t cygwin one with it.
Amazingly, it works perpectly. You're my savior! How can I express my gratefulness to you.
And it's just minor issue is missing of bind optioon. (I can say winsocat's workaround is much better though)
Hello, hero!
Recently I was desperately seaching for
socat
for windows, for some corporate security issues. The only one I found was follwing cygwin build version of original unix socat.But it was very unstable and buggy... All my keep-alive socket connections kept being hang or lost.
And yesterday, I happened to find your project and tried to replace the sh*t cygwin one with it. Amazingly, it works perpectly. You're my savior! How can I express my gratefulness to you.
And it's just minor issue is missing of
bind
optioon. (I can saywinsocat
's workaround is much better though)I needed to fix the following
socat
commandwith this way
Now, I don't need
bind
option anymore, but it would be nice if you remark the way of specifying bind address explicitly with the brand-newwinsocat
.Thank you very much again! Joseph.
