This server still has a problem. It doesn't say that it will close the connection which it should with Connection: close header.

Furthermore, if we do that, we need to actually send back the terminating characters.

Here is an example:

socat -T 1 -d  -d  TCP-L:10081,reuseaddr,fork,crlf  SYSTEM:"echo -e  \"\\\"HTTP/1.0  200  OK\\\nDocumentType: text/plain\\\n\\\ndate: \$\(date\)\\\nserver:\$SOCAT_SOCKADDR:\$SOCAT_SOCK‐ PORT\\\nclient: \$SOCAT_PEERADDR:\$SOCAT_PEERPORT\\\n\\\"\"; cat; echo -e \"\\\"\\\n\\\"\""
