david ed2ba4e168 Copy nping, nsock, nbase, zenmap, ncat from their homes in /.
If you have trouble updating after this revision you need to follow
these instructions. You have probably just seen an error like this:

svn: URL 'svn://svn.insecure.org/nping' of existing directory 'nping'
does not match expected URL 'svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap/nping'

This is caused by the replacement of SVN externals.

Here's what you need to do. First, save any local changes you might have
in the nping, nsock, nbase, ncat, and zenmap directories. (For example
by running "cd nping; svn diff > ../nping.diff".) If you don't have any
local changes you can skip this step.

Then run these commands:

rm -rf nping/ nsock/ nbase/ ncat/ zenmap/
svn update
svn cleanup

If all else fails, you can just delete your whole working directory and
check out anew:

svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap

There may be further discussion in the mailing list thread at
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2011/q4/303.

Ncat AUTHORS
============
Ncat is based in concept (but not code) on the original "Netcat"
written by Hobbit circa 1994. Ncat combines the original Netcat
feature set as well as various other ideas from other Netcat-like
products, such as CryptCat, Socat, GNU Netcat, etc.
Ncat was originally written from the ground up by Chris Gibson
(chris@linuxops.net) and was funded by the Google Summer of Code Program
2005.
Development, bug fixes, security auditing, improvements by Sean
(infamous42md@hotpop.com).
Starting with the Google Summer of Code 2008, Ncat development was
picked back up by Mixter and Kris Katterjohn. This included many bug
fixes, new features and code cleanups.
The Ncat requirements, ideas and general support and help were given by
Fyodor.
Many helpful comments, suggestions and other useful information was
taken from the nmap-dev list (@insecure.org) as well as other
contributors via email.
Ncat shares the Nmap infrastructure libraries (Nsock and Nbase) which
were originally written by Fyodor.
