Communications :: WAP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Terminals :: Terminal Emulators/X Terminals

About: Anyterm provides a terminal emulator on a Web page using Javascript
and an Apache module. The module forks a shell and communicates with the
script using XMLHTTP on port 80, or securely using SSL. This provides you
with shell access to your machine from almost any Web browser, even when
firewalls are in the way. Experimental features include support for WAP
browsers and standalone operation without Apache, and the my.anyterm.org
service provides access without the need to install anything on your
servers.

Changes: This version uses HTTP POST requests for communication, which is
more correct and more secure for systems with insecure log files.

[015] - CoaSim 4.1.0 
  by Thomas Mailund (http://freshmeat.net/users/mailund_birc/)
  Wed, Feb 8th 2006 16:14

Scientific/Engineering :: Bioinformatics

About: CoaSim is a tool for simulating the coalescent process with
recombination and gene conversion under the assumption of exponential
population growth. It efficiently constructs the ancestral recombination
graph for a given number of individuals and uses this to simulate samples
of SNP and micro satellite haplotypes/genotypes. The generated sample can
afterwards be separated in cases and controls, depending on the states of
selected individual markers. The tool can accordingly also be used to
construct cases and control data sets for association studies.

Changes: Callbacks for population structure events (bottlenecks,
migration, etc.) have been added. A major bug that caused the starting and
ending times of epochs to be wrong in some cases (starting too late or
never terminating) has been fixed.

About: Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux
distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such
as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across
the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected
repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux
system. Rather than having a full distribution come from a single vendor,
it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping
the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from
other repositories across the Internet.

Changes: Adds more protocol versioning to enhance future backwards
compatibility.

System :: Networking :: Monitoring

About: ECSHostMon is a network monitoring software which monitors IP
addresses by pinging them every five minutes. It manages a downtime log
and generates reports. It also has the ability to mark the hosts as
firewall enabled or "admin down", which means you can change the status of
hosts manually. It uses MySQL in the background to manage logs. It has a
very light user interface. It can notify using alarms or by sending email.

diversion are now properly ignored. The "\~" character now works correctly
if it is part of the first word on an output line. Non-ASCII characters are
now properly output when a font is mounted, replacing another font on the
same physical position.

[038] - libpreludedb 0.9.4 
  by yoann (http://freshmeat.net/users/yoann/)
  Wed, Feb 8th 2006 05:50

Security

About: The PreludeDB Library provides an abstraction layer upon the type
and format of the database used to store IDMEF alerts. It allows
developers to use the Prelude IDMEF database easily and efficiently
without worrying about SQL, and to access the database independently of
the type/format of the database.

Changes: A fix was made for filtering the IDMEF field using the "!="
operator, which resulted in filtering out events where the field did not
exist. Listed IDMEF value ordering is enforced: values were sometime
unordered because of an uninitialized position problem. Error reporting
from perl and python bindings was fixed. The libpreludedb header files
were made C++ compiler friendly. A "move" command in preludedb-admin was
implemented. When SQL query logging is enabled, the time taken to execute
the query is logged. An opaque plugin API was added. Verbose error
reporting makes the error API viable for more drivers.

balanced), CGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting, SSL, and much
more. 

Changes: The load balancing of mod-fastcgi now uses all hosts for
spreading the load instead of only using them as failover. mod-cgi works
in combination with mod-scgi again, and mod-auth doesn't crash on an
invalid authentication header.

System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring

About: mcelog decodes machine check events (hardware errors) on x86-64
machines running a 64-bit Linux kernel. It should be run regularly as a
cron job on any x86-64 Linux system (if it is not in the default packages
on your x86-64 distribution, please complain to your distributor). It can
also decode machine check panic messages from console logs.

Changes: --ascii reparsing of mcelog output was fixed. --filter was added
and known broken K8 GART errors are filtered out. The --ignorenodev
argument was added and is used in the cron script (which avoids cron
errors in Xen guest kernels). The new --dmi argument was added to resolve
machine check addresses to DIMM numbers in SMBIOS (however, this is
unreliable due to wide-spread BIOS bugs). Argument decoding was fixed to
support -- and to allow arguments in any order. --ascii was clarified in
the manpage.

  Wed, Feb 8th 2006 08:18



About: Parallels Workstation is powerful desktop virtualization solution
that empowers IT professionals with the ability to develop, test, and
deploy in multiple operating systems on a single PC. A sophisticated
virtual machine engine supports nearly every standard x86-based operating
system, including the entire Windows family, multiple Linux distributions,
OS/2, MS-DOS, and FreeBSD, each of which can be launched and utilized in
completely networked, fully portable, totally independent virtual
containers. Since guest operating systems are self-contained and directly
access hardware profiles, users never need to proactively partition hard
drives, allocate system resources, or continually reboot the host
operating system.

Changes: Performance and stability were improved. An Intel VT-x
improvement was made. USB support, a suspend/resume feature, sound
recording support, host PAE support, guest Solaris support, primary SuSE
10 support, and the Parallels Tools Center were added.

powerful classing abilities for drawing out the similarities between hosts
while allowing them to be as specific as necessary, and it handles
dependency and prerequisite relationships between objects clearly and
explicitly. 

Changes: This release adds configuration file support, scheduling, RPMs,
and much more.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
Software Development

About: Python Regular Expression Builder (Pyreb) is a wxPython GUI to the
re python module. It speeds the development of Python regular expressions
(similar to PCRE). The GUI is simple and features three parts, a text box
where the text to be analyzed is displayed, a text box where the regular
expression to be applied is displayed, and a tree control where the
results are displayed When one of the two textboxes change, the regex is
compiled and applied. Errors in the regex are shown in a statusbar. Pyreb
is somewhat similar to the Activestate RX Toolkit (part of Komodo IDE),
but is a completely different project. 

Changes: The XML-RPC server can be started by the end user. The
documentation shows a simple example on how to use the server from Python.

DPMS-related flickering with some X servers was fixed. A startup crash in
getgroups() when running setuid was fixed. A bad free() in the
"Documentation" button was fixed. The program no longer tries to run hacks
that aren't installed. Minor fixes were made to various XML config files
and man pages.
