Do you have a have public IP address (either IPv4 or IPv6)? If
that is not the case, you will need a third party in order to
establish the connection.
Could you explain why you don’t like http/ftp? They can also be used
by ‘non-proper’ or very small servers. Personally, I keep around a
small lighttpd installation for that use case.
However, you might also want to have a look at ‘servefile’ [1] which
basically acts like nc from rjc’s mail, but uses the HTTP protocol.
Best regards,
Claudius

backport it to stable, as it mostly requires python 2.6. Apparently,
IPv6 is not supported?
