nixos/tests/virtualbox: Fix netcat invocation 
This is a backwards-incompatibility in netcat-openbsd introduced due to
bumping the netcat version to 1.130 in
a72ba661ac.

Version 1.130 no longer exits on EOF but now needs to be passed the -N
flag in order to exit on EOF.

The upstream change reads[1] like this:

  Don't shutdown nc(1)'s network socket when stdin closes. Matches
  *Hobbit*'s original netcat and GNU netcat; revert to old behaviour
  with the new -N flag if needed. After much discussion with otto
  deraadt tedu and Martin Pelikan.  ok deraadt@

Here is the diff of this change:

Build Status Code Triagers Badge

Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:

% git remote add channels git://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git

For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-17.03 for the latest release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:

% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-17.03

For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.

NixOS linux distribution source code is located inside nixos/ folder.
