Secure locate provides a secure way to index and quickly search for
files on your system. It uses incremental encoding just like GNU locate
to compress its database to make searching faster, but it will also
store file permissions and ownership so that users will not see files
they do not have access to. It is a bit slower than the GNU locate, but
thats the price for security.
changes:
The heap corruption bug is now really fixed, as well as a bug that
caused slocate to segfault when path lengths are too large. A lot of
error checking (ie, all mallocs, fchdir, etc) has been added. Autoconf
is now used.

description:
SLOCCount (pronounced "sloc-count") is a suite of programs for counting
physical source lines of code (SLOC) in large software systems (it's a
"software metrics tool" or "software measurement tool"). SLOCCount can
count physical SLOC for a wide number of languages: C, C++, LISP,
shell, Perl, Assembly, TCL, Python, Yacc, Java, Expect, lex, awk,
Objective-C, Ada, Pascal, sed, and Fortran. It can take a large list of
files and automatically categorize their type using a number of
different heuristics, and comes with analysis tools as well. It's been
used to measure entire GNU/Linux distributions, and can be used for
smaller systems too.
changes:
A new tool, "get_sloc_detail", which gives a complete report of every
meaurement result (suitable for export to other tools), has been
created. A "--crossdups" option has been added to break_filelist. From
this and other improvements, SLOCCount should now be able to measure
multi-Gigabyte source code repositories. Some toolnames have been
changed and tools merged to make it easier to package SLOCCount (say
for placement in /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin). The download suffix has
been changed to ".tar.gz" to help some who had trouble getting ".tgz"
files. This release features lots of documentation fixes and
improvements, and lots of cleanup of the files.

sshd, telnetd, ftpd and nfsd on the server side. There is also a recipe
on the Web site on how to build 2.88MB bootable El Torito images.
changes:
scripts/lilo.conf.in has been changed so that lilo will wait 5 seconds
for any parameters before booting the system. A ./getKmap LINE has been
added to BurnIt so that the correct keymap will be used. Instead of
cpio, tar is used to compress the filesystem. The default base of all
paths is the CD Set base path now. Many clears have been removed so
that one can page through the output. Debian-style keyboard support has
also been added.

description:
XMail is an Internet and intranet mail server featuring an SMTP server,
a POP3 server, a finger server, multiple domains support, mail-only
accounts, SMTP relay checking, RBL/RSS/ORBS and custom spam protection,
SMTP authentication (PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 and custom), a POP3 account
synchronizer with external POP3 accounts, aliases, custom mail
processing, custom mail filters, mailing lists, remote administration,
custom mail exchangers, logging, and multi-platform code
(Linux/Solaris/NT).
changes:
The SMTP command RSET no longer cleans the authentication status of the
client. MX record resolution has been enhanced. A bugfix was applied to
the MD5 algorithm. A new USER.TAB variable ( for Mailing Lists )
"ListSender" has been added to hide real senders from SMTP protocol. An
RFC conformance bug in SMTP protocol has been fixed that made XMail
accept the MAIL_FROM command even if the HELO ( or EHLO ) command was
not issued. A bug has been fixed in SysExec() in Linux and Solaris
versions that made all external programs to have a bad behaviour or
fail. A bug has also been removed from the Windows version that
results in a failure to resolve MX queries.

User-Mode Linux gives you a virtual machine that may have more hardware

can assign your virtual machine only the hardware access you want it to
have. With properly limited access, nothing you do on the virtual
machine can change or damage your real computer or its software.
