There are *MANY* ways to solve your <CR><LF> problem, and don't listen
the the comment about nc supporting udp (where in the world would anyone
get that idea?)...tcp works just fine. An example below, using echo to
form the http request (on my Dachstein LEAF firewall):
# busybox
BusyBox v0.60.1 (2001.10.18-21:35+0000) multi-call binary

# echo -ne "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n" | busybox nc \
komfram.trafikkontoret.goteborg.se 80
