[001] - Aapl C++ Template Library 2.5.2
by Adrian Thurston (http://freshmeat.net/users/age/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 13:50

Software Development :: Libraries

About: Aapl is a C++ template library for generic programming. It contains
Linked List, Avl Tree, Vector, Binary Search Table, Double Ended Queue,
and Merge Sort. The library is designed to be versatile for the
programmer. For example, the linked list utilizes both inheritance and
templates to allow a single instance of a data structure to be an element
in multiple lists. In general, Aapl data structures do not have private
data members and are thus not abstracted away.

Changes: Various bugs were fixed. Vector was largely rewritten to support
classes with no default constructor. The assignment operator was
implemented for the linked list, avl tree, and vector.

[003] - Allin1 0.3.2
by Mario (Reliant) (http://freshmeat.net/users/ilpettegolo/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 19:14

Desktop Environment :: Window Managers :: Fluxbox

About: Allin1 is a little dock applet for FluxBox and similar window
managers which monitors CPU load with a moving graph, memory and swap
usage with histograms, battery and power status with histogram and icons,
and ethernet/PPP interfaces with icons and histograms (linear or
logaritmic).

Changes: This is a more compact version with only one area with memory and
swap histograms. Some "cosmetic" enhancements have been added; the border
and the spacing between histograms can now be configured with an ASCII
.conf file, through the variable "border".

[004] - Astaro Security Linux 3.207 (Stable 3.x)
by astaro (http://freshmeat.net/users/astaro/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 16:02

System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: Astaro Security Linux is a firewall solution. It does stateful
packet inspection filtering, content filtering, user authentication, virus
scanning, VPN with IPSec (PKI for X.509 certificates) and PPTP, and much
more. With its Web-based management tool, WebAdmin, and the ability to
pull updates via the Internet, it is pretty easy to manage. It is based on
a special hardened Linux 2.4 distribution where most daemons are running
in change-roots and are protected by kernel capabilities.

Changes: This release adds support for the Sun Cobalt LX50. It fixes ID270
(Network definition with the same name used in network groups), ID181 (the
X509 Cert uses the wrong VPN ID after upload), and the SMTP proxy restart
problem on the Pentium I/AMD K6.

Wednesday, August 14th 2002 13:43

About: AutoDia is a Perl application designed to allow the easy creation
of XML diagrams from various data sources. The output is meant for use
with Dia (or any XML parser). AutoDia supports any language through the
use of handlers, and a good handler for Perl as well as a simple handler
for C++ are included.

Changes: There are major fixes and improvements to the Java and C++
handlers. A PHP handler is included. There are minor bugfixes for the Perl
handler, and a major code refactoring and tidying.

[008] - bind 9.2.2rc1 (Bind9-Beta)
by Gael MARTINEZ (http://freshmeat.net/users/gaelik/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 10:58

Internet :: Name Service (DNS)

About: The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) implements an Internet
name server for Unix operating systems. The BIND consists of a server (or
`daemon') called `named' and a resolver library. A name server is a
network service that enables clients to name resources or objects and
share this information with other objects in the network.

Changes: This is a release candidate for BIND 9.2.2, which is a
maintenance release of BIND 9.2. It contains no new features.

[009] - C++ Portable Types Library (PTypes) 1.5.0
by Hovik Melikyan (http://freshmeat.net/users/hovik/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 13:41

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks

About: The C++ Portable Types Library (PTypes) is a simple alternative to
the STL that includes multithreading and networking. It defines dynamic
strings, character sets, lists, and other basic data types along with
threads, synchronization, and IP sockets. It is portable across modern
Unix and Windows systems, and includes a sample HTTP daemon showing the
full power of the library.

Changes: Wshare is becoming modular/scalable. Custom handlers for a new
HTTP method, file extension, or a non-existent path can be easily
incorporated into wshare at compile time. Currently this feaure is
documented only in the source files. Wshare can now show the server status
report through `http://localhost/.wstat'. Standard input, output, and
error devices are decalred in pstreams.h as pin, pout, and perr stream
objects respectively. There is a new printf-style formatted output method
outstm::putf(). Several bugs and memory leak problems have been solved.

[010] - cdialog 0.9b-20020814
by T.E.Dickey (http://freshmeat.net/users/tedickey/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 23:30

System :: Software Distribution Tools

About: Dialog allows you to present a variety of questions or display
messages using dialog boxes from a shell script. Several types of dialog
boxes are implemented including: calendar, checklist, file-selection,
gauge, info, input, menu, message, radiolist, tailbox, text, time, yes/no.

Changes: A new -colors option which allows color and video attributes to
be added to text areas, and a new --output-fd option to allow redirecting
to streams other than stderr or stdout.

[011] - cthumb 4.2
by cpg (http://freshmeat.net/users/cpg/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 12:23

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search
Multimedia :: Graphics

About: cthumb allows you to create Web albums of digital pictures with
thumbnails, captions, and several different views of the collection,
including (optionally) several languages and resolutions. An album is
composed of a series of pages, each composed of a collection of pictures.
You can have several annotations per picture, and can customize almost
everything in the way the albums look on the screen.

Changes: This release shortens long titles and descriptions to 50
characters, joins lines that end in "\", adds parse_option loop
optimizations, adds an HtmlExtension option for defining the preferred
extension, adds a -H option for listing all available variables and where
they apply, and fixes an InlineFiles bug, a diff issue for Solaris, some
link color issues, and an AutoSlideTime problem.

[012] - cvs-importer / svn-importer 0.3
by Matthew Mueller (http://freshmeat.net/users/donut/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 20:44

Software Development :: Version Control :: CVS

About: cvs-importer automates the task of importing all past versions of
an existing project into CVS or Subversion, including automatically
removing generated files, creating .cvsignore files/svn:ignore properties,
and tagging each version. Thus, you can gain some of the advantages of scm
for the older versions that weren't actually developed in cvs/svn, by
having all the changes in the history.

Changes: New support for subversion, a new test suite, ability to handle
-rc version strings, recognizing the alternate configure.ac spelling for
newer autoconf versions, fixing .cvsignore generation in subdirs, and
changing the standard behavior to not create a global cvsignore file.

[013] - DansGuardian Anti-Virus Scanner 1.0rc2
by James A. Pattie (http://freshmeat.net/users/pcxuser/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 16:22

Internet :: Proxy Servers
Security

About: The DansGuardian Anti-Virus Scanner gives you the ability to
virus-scan all content that passes through DansGuardian. It uses the
scanning code from the MailScanner project to do the actual virus
scanning, so it supports all the virus engines that the MailScanner
project supports. The scanning is done as the file is being downloaded, so
your current network apps don't have to be modified, etc. They just have
to support using a proxy.

Changes: A virusscan config option has been added to the dansguardian.conf
file so that you can disable the virus scanning code for testing purposes,
etc. All non HTML/text streams are now written to disk immediately instead
of being kept in memory, so there is a big performance boost when
downloading big files. This speeds up the file scanning process, as the
machine no longer has to have more memory than the biggest file it will
ever download.

Communications
Communications :: Chat :: AOL Instant Messenger
Communications :: Chat :: ICQ

About: Echomine Muse Communications API is a Java API with the goal of
integrating all network-collaboration services into one. The API will give
an easy-to-use interface that allows you to log on to multiple services

XMLRPC. There will be a client GUI Framework API to combine the use of all
these services under one easy-to-access API, so that you can write the GUI
client with much less effort.

Changes: Napster has just been deprecated and removed in this release.
Gnutella went through an entire overhaul to be more extensible, stable,
and efficient, with the addition of many new features. Minor feature
enhancements and fixes were made to the Jabber modules.

Wednesday, August 14th 2002 16:45

System :: Networking
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
Utilities

About: fauxident is a small Python script that will act as an extremely
naive ident server, answering all ident requests with a consistent
response (either ERROR or USERID). This can be advantageous on systems
where running a true identd is unavailable, where it would be would be a
security risk, or when masquerading firewalls are in use, where multiple
machines are involved behind the firewall and running a proper ident
system is not an option.

[022] - FreeMarker 2.1pre2 (Lazarus)
by Jonathan Revusky (http://freshmeat.net/users/revusky/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 13:42

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: FreeMarker allows Java servlets to keep graphic design separate
from application logic, by encapsulating HTML in templates. Templates
generate HTML dynamically, using data provided by the servlet. The
template language is powerful and intuitive, the compiler is fast, and the
output approaches the speed of static HTML pages.

Changes: Shared data models can be configured so that they will be
available as variables in all templates. TemplateModels can now access the
template environment, reading and setting variables. The include directive
has been enhanced to support the Zope-like "acquisition" algorithm.
Documentation has been expanded and reorganized.

[027] - Gringotts 0.6.0
by Germano Rizzo (http://freshmeat.net/users/mano78/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 16:29

Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Security
Security :: Cryptography

About: Gringotts is a small utility that allows you to jot down sensitive
data (passwords, credit card numbers, PINs, etc.) in an easy-to-read,
easy-to-access, and most of all very secure form. Gringotts makes use of
the MCrypt and MHash libraries for encryption, and uses GTK+ 2 for the
user interface. It lets the user choose from among eight strong encryption
algorithms (RIJNDAEL-128, RIJNDAEL-256, SERPENT, TWOFISH, CAST-256,
SAFER+, LOKI97, 3DES), two hashing algorithms (SHA1, RIPEMD 160) and two
compression techniques (ZLib and BZip2) with four compression ratios.
Moreover, it allows the user to use any file as a password, as an
alternative to the usual text string, giving additional choices.

Changes: Large parts of the code have been rewritten, and it should be
considerably faster and more reliable. A bunch of memory leaks, buffer
overflows, and security flaws have been corrected. Support for the first
Gringotts file format has been dropped; if you've got a file created with
an older version, you must convert it (by opening and saving it again with
a newer version, 0.4.2 to 0.5.9) before using it. A shell launcher is no
longer needed, so the application has only one executable now. The main
toolbar has an indicator of the security state of the instance of the
program.

[037] - Jakarta Turbine Maven 1.0-beta-5
by Jason van Zyl (http://freshmeat.net/users/jvanzyl/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 13:39

Software Development

About: Jakarta Turbine Maven is a Java project management and project
comprehension tool. Maven is based on the concept of a project object
model (POM) in that all the artifacts produced by Maven are a result of
consulting a well defined model for your project. Builds, documentation,
source metrics, and source cross-references are all controlled by your
POM.

Changes: Jelly is now used for all XML scripting instead of Ant build
files, which still provides Ant semantics but provides greater flexibility
in processing your builds. Plugins can now be packaged in JARs and dropped
into your Maven installation to add new functionality to your builds.
IBiblio is now being used as a primary Maven repository, providing high
availability, reliability, and bandwidth. The Reactor, which is a tool
that allows you to process an arbitrary set of projects, is in its first
working form.

Wednesday, August 14th 2002 19:24

Communications
Communications :: File Sharing
Internet :: File Transfer Protocol (FTP)

About: LUFS is a hybrid userspace filesystem framework supporting an
indefinite number of filesystems (localfs, sshfs, ftpfs, httpfs, socketfs,
freenetfs, and nutellafs) transparently for any application. It can be
regarded as doing the same job as the VFS (virtual filesystem switch) in
the kernel: it is a switch, distributing the filesystem calls to its
supported filesystems. However, LUFS filesystems are implemented in
userspace. This would be a drawback for local filesystems where the access
speed is important, but proves to be a huge advantage for networked
filesystems where the userland flexibility is most important.

Changes: This release fixes the "stale NFS file handle" bug and introduces
a mounting utility (lufsmount).

About: Mailto.php reclaims HTML mailto: links from the clutches of address
harvesters. It's a PHP library containing functions that generate
JavaScript which produce mailto: links, but keep the email addresses

as IP and SSL connectivity along side SQL database support. Designed in C,
conforming to POSIX standards, and utilizing light weight processes
(threads), this product is able to handle a large number of transactions
with high speed and minimal CPU usage.

Changes: New features include FHMS internet gateway support, encryption of
credit card numbers and passwords (with cast5, idea, rc4, rc5, or
blowfish), engine status email notifications, safe shutdown improvements,
and caching to improve SQL performance. The internal database is now
indexed, and all communication methods are now modules. It is now possible
to remove transaction history, force settlement, force batch number, and
renumber batches. This release also lowers CPU utilization by about 50%
under heavy loads.

About: OSSP fsl offers the syslog API otherwise provided by libc. Instead
of writing to the syslogd process, it uses the powerful OSSP l2 logging
capabilities. It is a drop-in link-time replacement which enables any
syslog consumer to take advantage of OSSP l2 by just linking this library
in before libc. The program is intended to apply OSSP l2 functionality to
existing syslog-based third-party programs without the requirement to
change the source code of the program.

Changes: Various source tree cleanups were made. Version support was
added. Documentation updates were made in OSSP cfg. A bug in OSSP l2 where
%N nodename expansion did not work was fixed.

Wednesday, August 14th 2002 16:43

Utilities

About: pmatch is an alternative to grep. It has most of the same
functionality, but is coupled with the power of PCRE engine in PHP. By
default, pmatch shows only the portion of the line that matched, unlike

It now supports large files by reading line by line, and handles data from
stdin so you can pipe to it.

Wednesday, August 14th 2002 00:05

Desktop Environment

About: Synergy lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between
multiple computers with different operating systems without special
hardware. It's intended for users with multiple computers on their desk
since each system uses its own monitor(s). Just move the mouse off the

[081] - sysstat 4.0.6
by Midnight (http://freshmeat.net/users/chtodd/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 23:44

System :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration

About: The sysstat package contains the sar, mpstat, and iostat commands
for Linux. The sar command collects and reports system activity
information. This information can also be saved in a system activity file
for future inspection. The iostat command reports CPU statistics and I/O
statistics for tty devices and disks. The statistics reported by sar
concern I/O transfer rates, paging activity, process-related activites,
interrupts, network activity, memory and swap space utilization, CPU
utilization, kernel activities, and TTY statistics, among others. Both UP
and SMP machines are fully supported.

Changes: mpstat now uses a bitmap of char instead of int to avoid
endianness problems. As a consequence, mpstat should now work on PowerMac
architectures. CPU activity as displayed by mpstat -P for a given
processor was in a wrong range on SMP machines (e.g., 0-50% for a dual
processor box). A missing bitmap initialization was fixed in mpstat.c, and
updates were made to the configuration script and the FAQ.

Software Development :: Interpreters

About: Tixapps applications are a suite of development applications that
run with TCL/Tk or Python, using the Tix widget set. Applications
currently included in Tixapps are tixinspect (an inspector for Tix/Tk
applications), tixdebug (a debugger to work with tixinspect), and tixinfo
(an info browser for GNU documentation).

Changes: This version introduces ObjTix, a simple bit of semantic sugar
that exposes Tix's object oriented class commands. The current ObjTcl
classes will be moved to ObjTix. It also adds two Python wrappers for
TkHTML and TkTable.

[083] - VServer 0.19
by Prakash Shetty aka crux (http://freshmeat.net/users/crux/)
Wednesday, August 14th 2002 18:36

About: VServer virtual servers operate like a normal Linux server, but
allow many independent servers to be run simultaneously in one box. These
can involve normal services such as telnet, mail, Web, and SQL servers -
in most cases using a standard configuration. The services are unaware of
the virtual server concept. Each virtual server has its own user account
database and root password. Each vserver uses standard packages and runs
at the same speed as a non-VServer installation.

Changes: C++ compilation issues were solved. Debian support was added.
Multiple IP addresses on several devices are now supported. You can setup
up to 16 IPs per vserver. All the scripts have been modified to allow the
package to be moved to a different location. The vrpm command now tries to
run the rpm command in the proper context (if the vserver is running) so
that the post-install script will have proper effect (and won't interfere
with the root server). The various pseudo services such as v_httpd and
friends have been reworked to support multiple IP addresses.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content

About: Whitebeam is a frontend XML-centered rapid design environment which
makes use of HTML/XML and JavaScript. It integrates two popular and robust
Open Source platforms (Apache and Mozilla's SpiderMonkey JavaScript
engine), with its own powerful XML environment and security architecture.
Providing an extensible XML-based interface to backend objects on any
platform, the client model securely segregates thousands of customer
applications within a single server.

Changes: This release adds additional XML/XPath capabilities and makes it
easier to transition from text based PHP applications to XML and
JavaScript based Whitebeam applications. Debugging and Apache
ErrorDocument handler pages have been made easier.

Wednesday, August 14th 2002 19:12

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management

About: WPP is a small perl5 script that allows preprocessing of HTML
files. It allows you to define "variables", which are brief abbreviations
for longer constructs, and include common HTML fragments. It's useful for
giving a uniform layout to different HTML pages. It can be used in cgi-bin
programs for automatic generation of pages. With less HTML code inside you
can make more flexible cgi-scripts.

Changes: This release adds wpplib, a standard macros library for WPP. A
config file can now be placed into subdirs, and it will be included and
merged with the main one only for files contained in that subdirectory.
XHTML output has been added for builtin macros through the -x or -xhtml
switches or the builtin macro XHTML_OUTPUT. Macro overloading has been
added; the same macro can now be defined multiple times with a different
number of parameters. DEFAULT_TMPLPATH and TMPLPATH have replaced
DEFAULT_TMPLDIR and TMPLDIR; you can now specify multiple template paths.
