% nncp-pkt [options] < pkt % nncp-pkt [options] [-decompress] -dump < pkt > payload
Low level packet parser. Normally it should not be used, but can help in debugging.
By default it will print packet’s type, for example:
Packet type: encrypted Niceness: 64 Sender: 2WHBV3TPZHDOZGUJEH563ZEK7M33J4UESRFO4PDKWD5KZNPROABQ
If you specify -dump option and provide an encrypted packet, then it will verify and decrypt it to stdout.
Encrypted packets contain plain ones, that also can be fed
to nncp-pkt
:
Packet type: plain Payload type: transitional Path: VHMTRWDOXPLK7BR55ICZ5N32ZJUMRKZEMFNGGCEAXV66GG43PEBQ Packet type: plain Payload type: mail Path: stargrave@stargrave.org
And with the -dump option it will give you the actual payload (the whole file, mail message, and so on). -decompress option tries to zlib-decompress the data from plain packet (useful for mail packets).
