I'm using Kubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail). As for netcat, I ran

nc -u localhost 6789

which, according to the man page, should "open a UDP connection to port 
[6789] of [localhost]." Not sure what output to expect, but after I hit 
the Enter key, the cursor drops down to the next line and nothing 
further happens. After a few minutes I exit out of the terminal.

It's really strange that my init.d and default/cwdaemon don't start it. 
Wonder what's going on?
