try "nc -l 3355". I ran nc on DragonFly with "-lp". On Linux I get "This is nc 
from the netcat-openbsd package. An alternative nc is available in the netcat-
traditional package." and it doesn't like "-lp". The number 3355 is an 
example; try various numbers.

example.com is used as an example of a hostname or domain name. I have no idea 
what your Tor box's name is, so I used primer.example.com. ("primer" is Slavic 
for "example".)
