Communications :: Chat :: AOL Instant Messenger
Security
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
About: AIM Sniff is a utility for monitoring and archiving AIM and MSN
messages across a network. It can be used to monitor for cases of
harassment or warez trading. It has the ability to do a live dump
(actively sniff the network) or read a PCAP file and parse the file for IM
messages. You also have the option of dumping the information to a MySQL
database or STDOUT. AIM Sniff will also monitor for an IM login and then
perform an SMB lookup on the originating computer in order to match NT
Domain names with IM login names (handles).
Changes: MSN sniffing support was added. The code was modularized for ease
of contribution and protocol development. Support for wireless sniffing was
increased.

Fri, Dec 16th 2005 07:38
Multimedia :: Graphics
Printing
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Argyll is an experimental ICC-compatible color management system.
It supports accurate ICC profile creation for scanners, CMYK printers,
film recorders, and displays, as well as calibration of displays. Spectral
sample data is supported, allowing a selection of illuminants observer
types and paper fluorescent whitener additive compensation. Profiles can
also incorporate source specific gamut mappings for perceptual and
saturation intents. Gamut mapping and profile linking uses the CIECAM02
appearance model, a unique gamut mapping algorithm. A fast 8-bit raster
color conversion engine is provided along with support for accurate 16-bit
conversion. Device color gamuts can be viewed and compared using a VRML
viewer.
Changes: The main changes in this release are some important bugfixes to
the scattered data interpolation code used in creating CLUT profiles. The
quality of profiles should be noticeably improved. These fixes will affect
profile, icclink (when gamut mapping is being used), and refine. A serious
bug in the default behavior of targen has corrected. CIEDE2000 Delta E
support has been added. Hexagonal test charts can now be printed and read
using the Gretag SpectroScan.

Fri, Dec 16th 2005 11:25
System :: Archiving :: Backup
System :: Archiving :: Mirroring
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: This driver allows the Linux kernel to use the ATA over Ethernet
(AoE) network protocol. Using AoE, a Linux system can use AoE block
devices like EtherDrive (R) storage blades. The block devices appear as
local device nodes (e.g. /dev/etherd/e0.0).
Changes: The revalidate feature now allows AoE devices to change size,
even when the device is in use, like LVM devices do. The allowed number of
outstanding AoE packets was increased to enhance performance.

Security
System :: Monitoring
About: fupids2 is a so-called human oriented IDS based on the FUPIDS
project. fupids2 calculates an attacker level for every user on all
Unix/Linux/BSD systems in the network. It looks at the behavior of the
user (the programs the user uses, the daytime the user is active, the
building and room the user uses, the part of the room in which the user
sits, and so on) and reports if the user engages in behavior that is
unusual for that person. This method can often detect accounts overtaken
by attackers.
Changes: The calculation system for the attacker level of users' behavior
is now replaced by a calculation through a neural network.

the POSIX standard. Software developed on original Unix systems has quite
often used internals of yacc and lex. The tools in this package provide a
convenient way to make such software compile on free Unix platforms such
as Linux or BSD.
Changes: Shift operators for the "eval" macro are now available in the
traditional version of "m4". Functions for wide character handling that
were missing in the first release have been included in the libl.a library
for "lex".

by Ben Klang (http://freshmeat.net/users/kf4wbx/)
Fri, Dec 16th 2005 14:03
Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
System :: Networking :: LDAP
About: ldap2dns is a program to create DNS records directly from an LDAP
database. It can and should be be used to replace the secondary name
server by a second primary one. ldap2dns helps reduce all kinds of
administration overhead. No more flat file editing, no more zone file
editing. After having installed ldap2dns, the administrator only has to
access the LDAP database. If she desires, she can add access control for
each zone, create a special GUI, or use one of the existing LDAP GUIs and
add all other kind of zone and resource record information without
interfering with the DNS server. ldap2dns is designed to write an ASCII
data file used by tinydns (from the djbdns package), or a zonename.db
-file as used by named.
Changes: This release adds the ability to convert a tinydns formatted data
file into an LDIF format suitable for importing into an LDAP tree. Support
for configuring DNS "views" (a la Bind) is now fully working. Some of the
older code has been deprecated, but is still available in the tarball in
case someone out there is depending on it. The spec file has been updated,
and the Makefile knows how to build RPMS for Red Hat and SuSE.

About: libview is VMware's Incredibly Exciting Widgets, a collection of
GTK+ widgets used within VMware products. These widgets are the same ones
used in VMware Workstation 5.0 and higher, and were considered useful
enough to open source so that others could use them in their own projects.
These widgets are actively developed and maintained.
Changes: A bug was fixed where instead of checking if an inputted
character was in a string consisting of the delimiter and the tab
character, the code was checking if it was in a string consisting of the
sum of the ASCII values of the delimiter and tab characters. This was
preventing the character "6" from being entered when using "-" as the
delimiter.

Fri, Dec 16th 2005 07:47
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original
tail program. The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your
console (with ncurses). Merging of 2 or more log files is possible. It can
also use colors while displaying the log files (through regular
expressions) for faster recognition of what is important. It can also
filter lines (again with regular expressions). It has interactive menus
for editing given regular expressions and deleting and adding windows. One
can also have windows with the output of shell scripts and other software.
When viewing the output of external software, MultiTail can mimic the
functionality of tools like 'watch'.
Changes: "O" (uppercase "o") now clears all windows. Saving the scrollback
buffer to a file has been fixed (it would segfault). Counting of matching
regexps now works. The online help has been updated.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
About: Ochiba is a Web-based image gallery that is a hybrid of traditional
"photo album" software such as Gallery or Coppermine and "image board"
software, such as futaba, futallaby, and wakaba. It also borrows concepts
found in gmail and iPhoto to provide flexible, keyword/tag based filtering
of displayed images, which can be used to create on-the-fly "virtual"
albums. Its other features include XHTML/CSS compliance, RSS feeds for
image categories, post throttling, IP banning, caching, visual image-based
post verification for spam prevention (CAPTCHA), and zip file handling (for
multiple images in one upload).
Changes: This version includes minor tweaks and fixes to stabilize the
codebase, including cache detection fixes, URL-self discovery fixes, and
minor Javascript tweaks. It also introduces client side image caching for
bandwidth conservation.

Communications :: Email :: Filters
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: POP3
Internet :: Proxy Servers
About: P3Scan is a full transparent proxy server for email clients. It
runs on a Linux box with iptables (for port redirection). It can be used
to provide email scanning from the Internet to any internal network, and
is ideal for helping to protect your "Other OS" LAN from harm, especially
when used in conjunction with a firewall and other Internet proxy servers.
It is designed to enable scanning of incoming email messages for viruses,
worms, trojans, spam, and harmful attachments. Because viewing HTML email
can enable a spammer to validate an email address (via Web bugs), it can
also provide HTML stripping.
Changes: This release upgrades RipMIME to 1.4.0.6, fixes demime and
p3scan.extra bugs, and adds some features.

[055] - Ragel State Machine Compiler 5.0
by Adrian Thurston (http://freshmeat.net/users/age/)
Fri, Dec 16th 2005 23:23
Software Development :: Code Generators
About: Ragel compiles finite state machines from regular languages into
C/C++/Objective-C code. It allows the programmer to embed actions at any
point in a regular language and to control non-determinism in the
resulting machines. It understands concatenation, union, kleene star,
subtraction, intersection, epsilon transitions, and various other common
operators. Through the use of labels and epsilon transitions, Ragel
supports the building of state machines using a named state and associated
transition list paradigm. Its finite state machines are closed under all of
its operators. This property allows for arbitrary regular languages to be
described. It can be used to create a parser for any language that is
regular.
Changes: Support for the D programming language was added. The interface
between the generated code and the host program was simplified. Ragel no
longer puts generated code in functions, nor does it require that a state
machine be encapsulated in a class or structure. The fbreak action
statement was added. Generated code now immediately breaks out of the
processing loop when an error is encountered. Many improvements were made
to the code generator and the longest match operator. The executable was
split into a frontened which only compiles state machines and a backend
which does code generation.

the Events class. The Events loop now supports OpenGL applications better.
OpenGL attributes can now be accessed using properties. User-defined events
work much better. Creating Resizable and OpenGL windows is easier. All of
the OpenGL Red Book examples have been ported to SDL.NET, and a Wiki
version of OpenGL Red Book was added to the SDL.NET Web site.

[062] - Sudokut 0.2
by bdesgraupes (http://freshmeat.net/users/bdesgraupes/)
Fri, Dec 16th 2005 21:10
Games/Entertainment :: Puzzle Games
About: Sudokut is a command line solver for Sudoku puzzles. When supplied
with a Sudoku string or file, it returns all possible solutions. It takes
approximately half a second to solve a medium force Sudoku by using an
efficient algorithm that is guaranteed to find all the solutions. It
accepts many options that implement various features (validity check,
diff, suggestions, and probing).
Changes: This version added a -s option that provides suggestions about
the next step, a -p option that probes the Sudoku using a particular
technique, a -o option that obtains only the first solution in the case of
a multiple solutions puzzle, and a -n option that disables backtracking.
More solving techniques are supported, including block to row/col
reduction, block to block reduction, naked pairs reduction, hidden pairs
reduction, and x-wing reduction.

[063] - Systems of Ordinary Differential Equations 25
by Dennis Darland (http://freshmeat.net/users/djdarland/)
Fri, Dec 16th 2005 07:45
About: SODE uses long Taylor series to solve systems of ordinary
differential equations. It generates code to solve the equations in either
Icon (or Unicon) or Maple. Using the Taylor series, estimates are made of
the location and order of poles. An effort is made to adjust H to control
the error. It has worked well in testing, but needs more testing as there
are so many possibilities. To solve STIFF equations, MAX_TERMS may be set.
Differentiation done automatically.
Changes: This release improves the step size control and makes corrections
to the .ide files.
