Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 10:27
System :: Boot :: Init
System :: Networking
System :: Systems Administration
About: /etc/net represents a new approach to Linux network configuration
tasks. Inspired by the limitations of traditional configuration
subsystems, /etc/net provides builtin support for configuration profiles,
interface name management, removable device support, full iproute2 command
set support, interface dependency resolution, and a QoS configuration
framework. /etc/net provides support for the following interface types:
Ethernet, WiFi (WEP), IPv6/IPv6 tunnels, PSK IPSec tunnels, VLAN, PLIP,
Ethernet bonding and bridging, traffic equalizer, Pent@NET, usbnet, and
PPP. Due to its modular design, support for new interface types can be
added without overall design changes.
Changes: A dhcp-static BOOTPROTO and dhcpcd workaround. A 'service network
check' enhancement. Duplicates have been removed from options files.

Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 05:48
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Office/Business :: Scheduling
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: Active Calendar is a PHP class that generates calendars (month or
year view) as HTML tables (XHTML-Valid). It can produce static calendars
without any links or calendars with navigation controls, a date picker
control, event days and content with event URLs, and linkable days
(optionally URL or Javascript). The layout can be configured using CSS,
and JavaScript is not required. The supported dates (on systems using a
32-bit signed integer Unix time_t) are: 1902-2037 (Unix) and 1971-2037
(Windows), when using the default PHP native date functions, and 100-3000
and later, when using the ADOdb Date Library.
Changes: The class now supports different GMT zones and not only the
server local time for the current date calculation. The setEventContent()
method has also been modified to optionally create a different HTML class
name (layout) for each event content.

tree with files that can then be attached to locations, vendors,
manufacturers, software, or servers. It maintains a list of all software
installed on a server and how many licenses are allocated to it. A Perl
script run from cron emails users when a license is about to expire.
Changes: This release adds a Perl script to check license expirations. A
"moving" menu bug has been fixed. The documentation has been updated. An
alert level has been added to software expiration.

[027] - FreeNX 0.2.8
by Kurt Pfeifle (http://freshmeat.net/users/pipitas/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 09:22
About: FreeNX is an implementation of a NoMachine/NX-compatible terminal
server. It makes use of NoMachine's NX command line tools more convenient
and less error prone.
Changes: Important security fixes were made. Any version prior to 0.2.8
should not be used in production, and such versions are not supported any
more. In prior versions, the authority file was not used at all, which had
the same effect as if "xhost +localhost" was set, allowing any local or NX
user to access any other NX user's $DISPLAY. Two other potential security
problems (where umask was not set to a safe value) were removed.

by Kurt Pfeifle (http://freshmeat.net/users/pipitas/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 15:14
About: FreeNX is an implementation of a NoMachine/NX-compatible terminal
server. It makes use of NoMachine's NX command line tools more convenient
and less error prone.
Changes: Settings are now in config files. 'nxnode' supports "autostart"
functionality. You can forward connections to the commercial NoMachine NX
server for insta+operation of FreeNX and NoMachine NX on the same system
without conflict. A generic connection forwarding mechanism allows
"chaining" of nxservers. "floating window" support for "rootless" nxagent
in preparation for the upcoming 1.5.0 NX libraries. "floating window" also
for direct nxproxy:nxproxy connections. "nxsetup" now has "--uninstall".
Increased security by suppression of port- & X11-forwarding in ssh-key.

[038] - Kernel Mode Linux 2.6.11_001 (For Linux 2.6)
by Toshiyuki Maeda (http://freshmeat.net/users/tosh/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 22:10
System :: Operating System Kernels
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: Kernel Mode Linux is a technology which enables the execution of
user programs in a kernel mode. In Kernel Mode Linux, user programs can
access kernel address space directly. Unlike kernel modules, user programs
are executed as ordinary processes (except for their privilege level), so
scheduling and paging are performed as usual. Although it seems dangerous,
the safety of the kernel can be ensured through such methods as static type
checking, software fault isolation, and so forth.
Changes: This version has been merged with the 2.6.11 Linux kernel.

[039] - Kernel Socks Bouncer 2.6.11
by Paolo Ardoino (http://freshmeat.net/users/binduck/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 10:14
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.

About: Mauve constructs global multiple alignments of rearranged genomes.
It also provides an interactive display of multi-species sequence
conservation and any annotated features in those genomes. It can be
applied to either finished or incomplete genomes in multiple contigs. The
resulting display is useful for identifying functional chromosomal regions
under selective pressure and for performing ortholog assignment based on
conserved gene order. Mauve writes global alignments in eXtended
Multi-FastA (XMFA) format, a phylogenetic guide tree in Newick format, and
the location of genomic islands. It identifies the breakpoints of genomic
rearrangement and can provide a reduction of the genomes to a signed
permutation matrix suitable for inference of rearrangement history.
Changes: Annotated feature display from GenBank format files was added.
Mac OS X is fully supported. Display of chromosomal boundaries and contig
boundaries in incomplete genome assemblies was added.

[049] - minpair 4.0
by Bill Poser (http://freshmeat.net/users/billposer/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 20:46
Text Processing :: Linguistic
About: minpair generates a complete list of minimal pairs (words differing
in exactly one segment) for use in linguistic research from a list of words
in UTF-8 Unicode. By default, only searches for pairs of words of the same
length differing in exactly one segment. Command line options allow the
addition of single insertions or deletions and single transpositions. In
order to find all minimal pairs it is normally necessary for the input
notation to use one character for each segment. Even in IPA transcription,
this is often not the case. minpair provides for this situation by
accepting definitions of multigraphs.
Changes: The default input now consists of two columns per line rather
than one, separated by a tab. The second column is intended for an
identifier, typically a gloss or record number. The identifier is written
out together with the associated word, making it easier to identify the
form when working with an unfamiliar language.

[064] - Plan 9 From User Space March 2, 2005
by Eric Van Hensbergen (http://freshmeat.net/users/ericvh/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 09:17
Software Development
About: Plan 9 From User Space is a port of the bulk of the Plan 9 software
build environment to Unix. While the libraries make an attempt to play nice
with the rest of the system (by using the Unix rules for printf verbs and
Unix system headers, for example), this port tries to reproduce the Plan 9
build environment as faithfully as possible, providing u.h and libc.h, and
blithely redefining tokens such as open, dup, and accept in order to
provide implementations that better mimic the Plan 9 semantics. The result
is a more complicated and less Unix-friendly environment, but Plan 9
programs can typically be compiled with little or no changes.
Changes: This version is more portable between architectures and operating
systems. More applications are now supported, including preliminary support
for Venti.

[076] - rlocate 0.2.2
by Rasto Levrinc (http://freshmeat.net/users/rastol/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 06:56
About: rlocate is an implementation of the "locate" command that is always
up-to-date. The database that the original locate uses is usually updated
only once a day, so newer files cannot be located right away. The behavior
of rlocate is the same as slocate, but it also maintains a diff database
that gets updated whenever a file is created or a directory is moved. The
rlocate kernel module can be compiled only with Linux 2.6 kernels.
Changes: Inserting of paths in the module after timeout is now disabled if
the daemon is not running. This prevents the module from eating up memory
indefinitely if the daemon stopped working for some reason. Inserting of
paths is re-enabled if the daemon starts running again.

quickly and at low cost, yet it is backed up with features that make it
powerful enough for an enterprise-level intranet, extranet, or general
Website with hundreds of pages. It includes an author-publisher system,
version control for full audit trails, extranet functionality (based on
users and overlapping groups), multiple content types (Web pages,
downloads, news, events, annotated hyperlinks, and adverts), an advanced
search mechanism, and other enterprise level features. For developers, it
can be used as a framework for advanced applications.
Changes: This is a release for fixing minor bugs which were present in the
previous version. Some additional functionality for advanced users was
added. A problem of bare linefeeds being sent in email reply forms was
fixed. PHP warnings which were caused by occurrences of unquoted hash
arrays were stopped. Compatibility was improved to allow installation in
subdirectories. In the Content Folders area of the admin screens, a popup
window is used to select the destination folder when moving Items.

[094] - unionfs 1.0.9
by Ed Avis (http://freshmeat.net/users/ed_avis/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 09:10
System :: Filesystems
About: Unionfs is a stackable unification file system which can appear to
merge the contents of several directories (branches), while keeping their
physical content separate. Unionfs is useful for unified source tree
management, merging the contents of a split CD-ROM, merging separate
software package directories, data grids, and more. Unionfs allows any mix
of read-only and read-write branches, as well as insertion and deletion of
branches anywhere in the fan-out. To maintain Unix semantics, Unionfs
handles elimination of duplicates, partial-error conditions, and more.

Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 15:18
Information Management :: Records Management
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search
About: USCVprogs is a project developing a collection of utilities for
automated retrieval and processing of United States election returns and
other data pertaining to U.S. elections. This includes parsers for formats
generated by commonly used election machines manufactured by companies such

It is primarily being developed to mine data for USCountVotes.org, but the
developed utilities may be of use to political campaigns and to local Town
Clerks or Boards of Elections.
Changes: A parser has been added for the Arizona SoS ES&S "full" flat file
format. A parser has been added for Diebold GEMS-generated SOVC PDF files.
A one shot script to help people parsing NEP exit poll data has been
added. The parsers have been nudged towards a congealing standard.

[096] - v9fs 2.0-test7
by Eric Van Hensbergen (http://freshmeat.net/users/ericvh/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 09:19
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
System :: Filesystems
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux
About: v9fs provides a Plan 9 9P2000 resource sharing protocol for the
Linux 2.6 kernel. This can be used to share files, devices, /proc, /sys,
etc. It also works with Plan 9 file servers, and can be used to mount
synthetic file systems from Plan 9 applications (see the plan9port
project).
Changes: A version check was added for the definition of vfs_permission
versus generic_permission. New 9P2000.u changes were added to 9p.h.
t_wstat in set_attr was fixed so that chmod and chown work. The t_wstat
implementation in rename was fixed, but u9fs is still broken for rename.
Some permissions bugs associated with mounting actual Plan 9 file servers
were fixed. A bug which crept into attach where the server address was
being sent as the aname was fixed.

[100] - WallFire wfconvert 0.4.1
by Hervé Eychenne (http://freshmeat.net/users/rv/)
Wed, Mar 2nd 2005 12:38
Security
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: Wfconvert is a firewalling policy compiler which imports and
translates rules to and from any supported firewalling language. It
provides a very simple and powerful language for describing firewalling
rulesets. Wfconvert is part of the WallFire project, whose aim is to
create a very general and modular firewalling management application based
on Netfilter or any kind of low-level framework.
Changes: A stupid bug in wfwizard concerning the inversion of the result
of the question "Do you have an Internet access?" has been fixed, and some
bugs occurring when there is no Internet access have been fixed. Wfconvert
is beginning to be quite usable under Linux to quickly set up a firewall
with netfilter/iptables.

Changes: This release been ported to GTK+ version 2, giving it automatic
font anti-aliasing, better-looking widgets, and UTF-8 support. The font
selection widget has additionally been fixed to understand the font naming
scheme used by Window Maker 0.90 and higher. (This makes WMakerConf 2.11
slightly incompatible with Window Maker 0.80.) The data update
functionality has been disabled; it was broken anyway. A new Italian
translation was added.
