Wed, Apr 6th 2005 13:27

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management
System :: Logging
About: Bandwidth Management Tools is a total bandwidth management solution
for Linux and can be used for firewalling, traffic graphing, and shaping.
It is not based on any currently-available bandwidth management software
and supports packet queues, bursting, complex traffic flow hierarchies,
flow groups, traffic logging, and a simple real-time monitoring front-end.
Changes: The masq tag is now supported in the NAT section. Memory cleanup
issues in the XML parser were fixed and XML library version checking was
removed. A check for the presence of the configuration file was added. An
error is now thrown if invalid tags are encountered in the <nat> section,
and checks for NAT tag parameter validity were added. A bug where comments
in the NAT section created an endless loop in bwm_firewall was fixed.

possible infections and preventing anyone from sending an infected
message. It claims a 100% detection rate for all viruses in the wild
through its powerful scanning engines, which are certified by prestigious
testing labs.
Changes: The sudo dependency was removed by bundling bdsu, a stripped down
version of sudo. The antispam filter now has support for image-based spam
messages. Some minor threading and statistics bugs were fixed. The "bd"
script was rewritten to be fully POSIX compliant and to use bdsu instead
of su when starting processes as different users. By default, plugins for
BitDefender HIVE analyser technology are now included.

[006] - BitTorrent 4.0.1
by Moritz Barsnick (http://freshmeat.net/users/barsnick/)
Wed, Apr 6th 2005 09:42
Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
System :: Software Distribution
About: BitTorrent is a tool for copying files from one machine to another.
FTP punishes sites for being popular. Since all uploading is done from one
place, a popular site needs big iron and big bandwidth. With BitTorrent,
clients automatically mirror files they download, making the publisher's
burden almost nothing.
Changes: This release introduces an all new queue-based user interface
(based on GTK+ instead of wxWidgets). It also features various interface
improvements. Many options are now modifiable from the interface,
including upload rate. Statistics are now visible in the GUI. Performance
was improved. BitTorrent packets are now marked as bulk data to make
traffic shaping easier. Various bugs were fixed. The license has changed
to the "BitTorrent Open Source License".

Wed, Apr 6th 2005 13:28
Database :: API
Software Development :: Libraries
About: C++ ResourcePool is a library which can be used to pool resources
of every kind. It can also be used as an abstraction layer by providing a
unique API for different resources of similar resource types; the most
prominent examples are SQL databases. It includes a convenient way to
access MySQL and Oracle databases in the same way, so that changing from
MySQL to Oracle or vice-versa does not need big code changes.
Changes: Some portability improvements have been made. This release
compiles on more systems and has better ISO C++ compliance. Tests were
successful on Linux and FreeBSD systems with gcc 3.2 upwards and icc 8.1.

[009] - Conary 0.50.9
by Michael K. Johnson (http://freshmeat.net/users/johnsonm/)
Wed, Apr 6th 2005 20:55
Software Development :: Version Control
System :: Archiving :: Packaging
System :: Installation/Setup
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: Bugfixes were made to --info output and the progress display in
the temporary yuck utility. findTroves() was moved to findtrove.py and was
reworked to be more modular. getSourceVersion() now correctly handles
branched binaries by looking up the branch to find the source component.
StreamSet and StringStream were reimplemented in C.

Education
Information Management
Text Editors
About: Dictator is an on-screen reading application for text files that
was intended for use with The Gutenberg Project. The problem with these
texts is that reading them on screen is not particularly pleasant and
printing them out is worse. Dictator employs the Rapid Serial Visual
Projection (RSVP) method of displaying words consecutively in the same
place, at a user-controllable rate. In theory, this method prevents
unconscious re-reading of adjacent text and decreases the tendency of the
reader to oralise the text, allowing for increased reading speeds.

Education
Games/Entertainment :: Simulation
Scientific/Engineering
About: Gravit is a gravity simulator. It uses simple Newtonian physics
using the Barnes-Hut N-body algorithm. Although the main goal of Gravit is

model callbacks and placement of labels on scaled graphs. An initial label
bounds for extra labels is now set, and a new helper method to has been
added to the JGraph class. DefaultEdge.clone now copies over the
references to the source and target port, whereas previously it just

by Luca Gibelli (http://freshmeat.net/users/nervous/)
Wed, Apr 6th 2005 14:05
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: multihomed is a script that can detect when your primary Internet
uplink goes down and switch to a backup uplink. It's smarter than many
similar scripts: it continuously pings several hosts around the Internet
using both uplinks, and elects the best one as primary. You can define the
priority with which uplinks are tried. This can be very useful if you have
a per-traffic contract on one of your uplinks and a flat-traffic contract
on another one: you can configure multihomed to use the per-traffic uplink
only if the other one is not working. It runs as a daemon, and you can
define the interval between consecutive checks. It can detect failures in
your ISP's uplinks too; by checking multiple remote hosts around the
Internet, you can tell if your ISP is fully working or not. This is much
more reliable than simply pinging a single server or (worse) your default
router. It is very flexible: you can easily customize the commands to
execute whenever one of the links goes down.

[056] - OpenSSH LDAP Public Key patch 0.3.2
by Eric AUGE (http://freshmeat.net/users/eau/)
Wed, Apr 6th 2005 04:41
System :: Systems Administration
About: The OpenSSH LDAP Public Key patch provides an easy way of
centralizing strong user authentication by using an LDAP server for
retrieving public keys instead of ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. It uses the
standard core.schema/nis.schema and strongAuthenticationUser object class,
which can simplify login centralization but could introduce serious
security flaws if the LDAP server is not correctly configured.
Changes: This release added support for LDAP server failover, LDAP
persistent connections, a rewrite and cleanup of the LDAP userkey
retrieval and group checks, renamed sshd_config lpk tokens, an easier
installation process, and various bugfixes.

Wed, Apr 6th 2005 07:49
System :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
Utilities
About: System Configuration Collector (SCC) is yet another configuration
collector. It consists of a client and a server part. The client collects
configuration data in a structured snapshot, compares the new snapshot
with the previous one, and adds differences to a logbook. Then the
snapshot and the logbook are converted to HTML for local inspection.
Optionally, the data can be sent to a system running the server software.
On the server, summaries of the data are generated, and search/compare
operations on the snapshots and logbooks are available via a Web
interface.
Changes: Split-file was implemented, allowing you to give each Oracle
instance its own snapshot and logbook. The collection of Oracle-related
data was extended. CSS was implemented for all HTML files. Several minor
changes and fixes were made in the collection of configuration data.

[082] - Task Coach 0.28
by Frank Niessink (http://freshmeat.net/users/fniessink/)
Wed, Apr 6th 2005 20:43
Office/Business :: Scheduling
About: Task Coach is a simple todo manager to manage personal tasks and
todo lists. It grew out of a frustration that well-known task managers,
such as those provided with Outlook or Lotus Notes, do not provide
facilities for composite tasks. Often, tasks and other things to do
consist of several activities. Task Coach is designed to deal with
composite tasks.
Changes: Hitting return or double click to edit efforts in the task editor
now works. Subtasks with the same name are no longer only visible once in
the task tree view. You can now hide composite tasks in the task list view
so that only leaf tasks are visible. A 'View' -> 'Tasks with subtasks' menu
item was added.
