running netcat in background mode

[kostaky]

Hi all,

I am trying to run netcat in listen mode on certain port and redirect all output to the file, eg.

netcat -l -p 2345 >> systemout &

and on another machine:

tail -f /test/SystemOut.log | sed 's/\(.*\)/LPSERVER05 - \1/g' >/dev/tcp/192.168.179.59/2345

It all looks fine but after writing 2048 bytes the listener netcat stops writing anything to the file. I believe it is waiting for input - any idea how can I make it fully background? Thank you.
