Explanation:
Machine A is setting up a listener on port 2222 using the nc command andthen having the letter A
sent an infinite amount of times,when yes is used to send data yes NEVER stops until it recieves a
break signal from the terminal (Control+C),on the client end (machine B),nc is being used as a
client to connect to machine A,sending the letter B and infinite amount of times,while both clients
have established a TCP connection each client is infinitely sending data to each other,this process
will run FOREVER until it has been stopped by an administrator or the attacker.
