Hi Eric, thanks for reply My netcat version is v1.10-38 and I am using Debian on 192.XXX.XXX.XX # nc -h [v1.10-38] connect to somewhere: nc [-options] hostname port[s] [ports] ... listen for inbound: nc -l -p port [-options] [hostname] [port] I use Ubuntu to access the Debian machine, and now my Java class is like this: public static void main(String[] args) { Connect conn = null; try { conn = new Connect("xen+ssh://root@192.168.XXX.XX/?netcat=/bin/netcat", true); but is still throwing the error: libvir: RPC error : End of file while reading data: /bin/netcat: invalid option -- 'U' nc -h for help: Input/output error exception caught:org.libvirt.LibvirtException: End of file while reading data: /bin/netcat: invalid option -- 'U' I have files on the client machine that are /usr/bin/ncat , /bin/netcat and /etc/alternatives/netcat. I am not sure which I should use. Thanks, Felipe On Tue, Oct 2, 2012 at 12:27 PM, Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> wrote:

Hi,
I am using java to connect to the xen, but my class is throwing a exception. Does anyone know what is happening?
public class TestConnection { public static void main(String[] args) { Connect conn = null; try { conn = new Connect("xen+ssh://root@192.XXX.XXX.XX/", true);
libvir: RPC error : End of file while reading data: nc: invalid option -- 'U'
What distro is running the machine at 192.XXX.XXX.XX, and what version of nc is it using (remembering that Fedora and Debian nc come from different heritages)? What does 'nc --help' output on that machine?
It may be possible to connect by installing an updated nc on that machine, and/or altering your xen+ssh://... URI to include a ?netcat=... parameter that points to an alternate location on that server that understands -U.
