[TriLUG] need help, netcat as a traffic generator?

[Greg Brown]

Peeps, I need some assistance:

Machine A: I want to start an endless process that fires data to netcat
Machine B: I want to take said netcat data and fire it to /dev/null

Tar seems to be the answer for packaging data between the two machines over
netcat but what can I use to generate data on Machine A?  Machine A is a
Linux box running CentOS.

Any ideas?
