[001] - Access_user Class 1.62
by olaf (http://freshmeat.net/users/olaf2/)
Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 12:10
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: Access_user Class is an easy to use system for protecting pages and
registering users. The main features are user login, user registration,
page protection, forgotten password recovery, and email-based account
activation. The class is powered by MySQL and PHP sessions. Inside the
package are examples for all primary methods.
Changes: If a user places the class in the root, a bad link was produced
while sending email (forgot password, register user). After the
improvements in version 1.61, the md5 encoding for the current password
was not removed. After an update, the password was encoded the second
time. Both bugs are corrected now.

About: AnotherScrapBook is a static Website generator. It can currently
handle (almost) all kinds of pictures, as well as MJPEG films as
typically generated by a digital camera.
Changes: No new features were added, but the program was split up into
smaller, more modular pieces. A small but with the newest MPlayer was
fixed (since the -jpeg option is obsolete).

[003] - Ascii2Binary 2.2
by Bill Poser (http://freshmeat.net/users/billposer/)
Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 12:08
Utilities
About: The Ascii2Binary project consists of two complementary programs
that convert between textual and binary representations of numbers.
Ascii2Binary reads input consisting of textual representations of numbers
separated by whitespace and produces as output the binary equivalents. It
is useful for generating test data and linking programs that generate
textual output to programs that require binary input. Binary2Ascii
converts binary numbers to text. In both programs, the type and
size/precision of the input or output is selected using command line
flags.
Changes: This release adds the ability to specify base symbolically as
well as numerically to ascii2binary, and the ability to specify base
numerically as well as symbolically to binary2ascii. It adds warnings for
incompatible options to binary2ascii. binary2ascii now defaults to
prefixing '0x' to hexadecimal output. The -x flag now turns this off.

includes automatic averaging of assessment grades for easy performance
tracking, flagging of recent student concerns in the MarkBook, and the
ability to collate reports of student concerns. There are also several
important bugfixes to the MarkBook.

configured either in each host or in a central configuration file. Dnsmasq
supports static and dynamic DHCP leases and BOOTP for network booting of
diskless machines.
Changes: This release fixes some fairly obscure bugs. It also fixes
compilation on Mac OS X. There are a few additional, fairly
minority-interest, features and configuration options, notably support
for the SRV DNS record type.

GraphicsMagick focuses on performance, minimizing bugs, and providing
stable APIs and ABIs. It runs on all modern variants of Unix, Windows,
VMS, and MacOS 9.
Changes: Security vulnerabilities have been eliminated for BMP, DIB, and
PSD formats. The definition of the -modulate hue option has been altered
so that it is useful and doesn't corrupt the image. TIFF writer has been
fixed for 16-bit TrueColor images on little-endian CPUs. Reading TIFF
images containing multiple strips has been fixed. Gmdisplay automatically
converts the colorspace to RGB so that images look right. This release
handles reading JPEG-2000 images in the YCBCR colorspace and retrieves any
embedded ICC color profile. The TGA writer now writes grayscale output when
appropriate.

System :: Diagnostics
System :: Logging
About: ICPLD (Internet Connection Performance Logging Daemon) is a
connection monitor that sends ICMP requests to IP addresses of your choice
and monitors if your machine has a working network connection. It logs
failed attempts to reach the hosts, and will stamp a log as soon as a

was unavailable and records both total down time and each occasion of
interrupted connection. It supports IPv6 and can execute a command
whenever a connection goes up or down, which is useful for alerting users.
Changes: Some minor bugfixes were made. The most important one is the
HTML-output bug which has been fixed and is now fully working. Some
alterations have been made to the autoconf stuff, to comply to the
"standard". This also fixed the small but annoying bug which appeared with
the --version switch.

[029] - Kernel Socks Bouncer 2.6.10
by Paolo Ardoino (http://freshmeat.net/users/binduck/)
Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 05:06
About: ksb26 (Kernel Socks Bouncer for 2.6.x) is a patch for the Linux
2.6.x kernel that redirects full TCP connections through a socks5 proxy.
ksb26 uses a character device to pass socks5 and the target IP addresses
to the Linux kernel. This is obviously quite useful if you want to
transparently tunnel certain things through a given proxy to remain
anonymous, or if you want to be able to sniff certain network traffic
transparently.
Changes: This release fixes a bug that disallowed redirections of browser
connections. It now handles all TCP connections.

by Simon Edwards (http://freshmeat.net/users/bongo44/)
Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 05:06
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
About: The Linux Replicated High Availability Manager allows the creation
of clusters for providing high availability through data replication for
one or more applications. Currently, clusters are limited to two nodes,
but multiple applications can be hosted and failed-over between the nodes.
The software uses a modified "enbd / raidtools" subsystem, and thus does
not require shared media (such as twin-tailed SCSI storage).
Changes: This release includes many changes to resolve many outstanding
problems with several cluster fail-over scenarios. Additional features
including initial support for multiple IP addresses are also included.

[067] - wyoFiler 0.7.2
by Otto Wyss (http://freshmeat.net/users/wyo/)
Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 05:09
Desktop Environment
Desktop Environment :: File Managers
About: wyoFiler is a cross-platform program that shows all subdirectories
and files in one tree window. Directories and files can be selected and
manipulated across the whole hierarchy, from the base directory all the
way down to the lowest level. Selected items may be in different
directories on different levels. All file manipulations are done in the
background, so multiple commands are possible simultaneously. The filer
can display multiple base directories in tabbed notebook pages or separate
top level windows. It conforms to the wxGuide guidelines and uses the
wxWidgets framework.
Changes: wxConfig in wxWidgets 2.4.2 has a bug which prevents compilation
out of the box. This release adds the necessary workaround.

end-user programs to plan a week's TV viewing.

[069] - Zapping VBI library 0.2.13
by Michael H. Schimek (http://freshmeat.net/users/mschimek/)
Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 20:09
Multimedia :: Video
About: The Zapping VBI library provides routines to read from raw Vertical
Blanking Interval capture devices, to demodulate raw to sliced VBI data,
and to interpret the data of several popular services. Basically, it
offers all the functionality needed by a VBI application except for the
UI.
Changes: This version improves the DVB VBI capture routines. It fixes NTSC
support in the BKTR driver interface, an include in test/wss.c, and the
signedness of the vbi_unham8 return type.

Sun, Jan 23rd 2005 19:55
Games/Entertainment :: Arcade
About: Zlog is a 2D platform game engine using the Allegro game
programming library. It takes ideas from old games such as "Capt'ain
Comic" and "Jazz Jack Rabbit".
Changes: This version features enemies and a debugging console, and is an
attempt to gather potential contributors. Graphics, sounds, and a level
editor are still to be implemented before it is truly a game.
