Other/Nonlisted Topic
Software Development
Software Development :: Build Tools
About: AutoGen is a tool designed for generating program files that
contain repetitive text with varied substitutions. Its goal is to simplify
the maintenance of programs that contain large amounts of repetitious text.
This is especially valuable if there are several blocks of such text that
must be kept synchronized. Output is specified with a Scheme-enhanced
output template. Input, if required by your template, may come from
AutoGen definitions, CGI data, or XML files.
Changes: Compiling against Guile 1.8 was enabled. An obscure day-1 bug in
the snprintfv library was fixed.

by Lev_Arris (http://freshmeat.net/users/LevArris/)
Sat, Apr 15th 2006 06:17
System :: Archiving :: Backup
About: Bacula is a set of programs that allow you to manage the backup,
recovery, and verification of computer data across a network of different
computers. It is based on a client/server architecture and is efficient
and relatively easy to use, while offering many advanced storage
management features that make it easy to find and recover lost or damaged
files.
Changes: The Windows FD no longer automatically folds the case in wildcard
comparisons, backslashes are no longer permitted in File directives, and
there's a new algorithm for selecting Volumes from the Scratch pool based
on a corrected version of the 1.38.5 algorithm. Regex, RegexFile, and
RegexDir are now implemented in the Win32 FD (experimental). Two new
programs, bregex and bwild, allow you to test regular expressions and
wildcards. The Makefile has been fixed.

by lausser (http://freshmeat.net/users/lausser/)
Sat, Apr 15th 2006 12:35
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring
About: check_logfiles is a plugin for Nagios which checks logfiles for
defined patterns. It is capable of detecting logfile rotation. If you tell
it how the rotated archives look, it will also examine these files. Unlike
check_logfiles, traditional logfile plugins were not aware of the gap
which could occur, so under some circumstances they ignored what had
happened between their checks. A configuration file is used to specify
where to search, what to search, and what to do if a matching line is
found.
Changes: Positioning in rotated archives which were compressed did not
work properly. This could lead to double alarms.

Sat, Apr 15th 2006 06:17
Utilities
About: csvdiff is a simple script for comparing two files of
comma-separated values with each other. In contrast to standard diff, it
will show the number of the record where the difference occurs and the
field or column which is different. The separator can be set to any value
you want, not just a comma. When performing the comparison, you also have
to provide a third file which contains the column names in a single line
separated by your separator. It also provides support for multiple column
keys, the ability to ignore case and trim leading/tailing spaces, and the
ability to ignore selected columns such as timestamps.
Changes: This release lets you fade out selected columns for comparison.

Database
Database :: Front-Ends
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
About: Dataface is a flexible and shapable skin that sits on top of MySQL,
making it accessible to every-day users. It automatically generates the
appropriate forms, lists, and menus for a user to interact with the
database without having to know any SQL. It is a full-featured Web
application framework, and gives developers the flexibility to customize
the features and behavior of their application via configuration files
(using the simple INI-file syntax), templates, and plug-ins. A generic
application with no customizations is completely functional, but the
developer is free to customize things at his leisure.
Changes: Handling of non-numeric primary keys (e.g. Date, Time, Char,
Varchar fields) was fixed. A glitch that caused errors when adding records
without an auto-increment field was fixed. A glitch that prevented
displaying blob URLs for container and blob fields of related records
using display() was fixed.

design that allows for the addition of anything from a physics engine to a
fully integrated renderer from a plugin. It is faster and more memory
efficient than many other modelers.
Changes: A Mac OS X version is available. The Cg renderer was improved. A
built-in code generator was added, capable of generating billions of
optimized shader variations based on the UI. An unlimited number of lights
with hardware-accelerated shadows is supported. HDR (high dynamic range)
rendering, reflection and refraction cubemaps, and tangent-space and
object-space normal maps were implemented. The "I" key sets the interest
point to point on the surface under the mouse pointer. IK and
construction-history were improved. (Spline) Faces are saved and restored

Sat, Apr 15th 2006 13:49
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: JOpt Simple is a simple, test-driven command line parser for Java
programs. It supports POSIX getopt() and GNU getopt_long().
Changes: A "domain-specific language" API was introduced for specifying
options for an option parser to recognize. The old methods for option
specification still work; you need not convert to the new methods. The
ability to specify that option arguments should be converted to specific
types was added. You can do this either with the old option specification
methods or with the new domain-specific language API.
OptionParser.requiresArg is deprecated in favor of
OptionParser.requiredArg.

Internet
Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
System :: Monitoring
About: PHREL is a per host rate limiter. It will track the rate of
incoming traffic on a server and insert a chain into iptables when a
configured threshold is crossed. The inserted chain may either rate limit
or block the offending host for a period of time. The inserted chain is
automatically removed when the offending host's traffic levels return to
normal. PHREL is particularly well suited to protecting nameservers (DNS)
from random hosts that flood requests, and to preventing SSH brute force
login attempts.
Changes: Several incorrect uses of memset() that prevented proper
initialization of internal structures, causing seg faults on some systems
were fixed. The MIB was updated with an enterprises number assigned by the
Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). Promiscuous mode is now a
configurable option, which is disabled by default. The max chain size was
lowered to 28 characters and chain names were shortened due to length
restrictions in Fedora Core 4. Configuration file support was added.

Internet
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: Restlet is a framework that brings the simplicity and efficiency of
the REST architectural style to Java developers. It is composed of two
parts, the Restlet API (alternative to Servlet API) and a reference
implementation (Noelios Restlet Engine). It supports all REST concepts
(resource, representation, data, connector, components, etc.) and is
suitable for both client and server REST applications. The server
connectors provided are HTTP(S), AJP (via Mortbay's Jetty or an adapter
Servlet) and the client connectors are HTTP(S), JDBC, and SMTP (via
JavaMail).
Changes: This release merges the Restlet and UniformInterface interfaces
into a single Restlet interface for simplification, updates to Jetty 6.0
beta 14, adds a extension to support Apache Commons FileUpload, adds
getInitParameters() to Component, and fixes an issue with
ServletCall.getRequestUri returning a trailing "?".

About: Tellu collects hardware and software information from large
FreeBSD, Linux, and Windows client networks. It consists of a client, a
server, and a skin. The Tellu client resides on the client workstations
and does its job as invisibly as possible. The client program collects
information from the network and sends it to the server, which saves the
data in a MySQL database. The skin is an optional interface top of the
database. The server package also contains a monitoring server, which
collects information about Tellu server.
Changes: The capability to print comprehensive error messages in clients
was added. Forgotten network usage statistics were added in standalone
mode in clients. The noarch client was improved. Small bugfixes were made
in servers. Skin was improved, and bugs were fixed. The documentation was
improved.
