  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 20:12

System :: Networking
System :: Networking :: Firewalls

About: AGT is a powerful console frontend for iptables. It allows all
options to be specified in easy-to-read configuration files, allowing you
to make complex changes to your firewall/gateway in a matter of seconds.

Changes: This is a maintenance release, fixing many issues regarding
memory leaks and buffer overflows, with added bounds checking. Also, the
program refuses to execute if the user is not root.

[002] - AMaViS "Next Generation" 0.1.4.1
  by Hilko Bengen (http://freshmeat.net/users/bengen/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 15:03

Communications :: Email :: Filters

About: AMaViS-ng is a modular rewrite of amavisd and amavis-perl. It scans
email for malicious code inside attachments and archive files, stopping
delivery if malicious code is found. It supports integration of several
third-party virus scanners and integrates nicely into several MTA setups.
Unlike amavis-perl and amavisd, there is no need for build-time
configuration.

Changes: Some configuration bugs have been fixed. A README about security
considerations has been added. Man pages have been added. The Debian build
scripts have been updated for using with Woody (3.0) and Sarge.

Communications :: Chat

About: Anna is a set of AIML (Artificial Intelligence Markup Language)
files that constitute a chat bot. Unlike other Chat Bots, Anna declares
herself to be human, and then has a past, personality, and identity built
up from there. Anna is designed to win the 2002 Loebner Prize Competition,
and is based on the landmark work of the ALICE AI foundation.

Changes: Lots of fixes were made to various files, along with a major
change for using the bundle on Linux.

[005] - batemail 0.8.6
  by Ryan VanMiddlesworth (http://freshmeat.net/users/ryanvm/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 14:54

Communications :: Email :: Filters

About: batemail is a Perl script that you slip between your MTA (e.g.
Sendmail) and your local mailer (e.g. Procmail) to strip potentially nasty
attachments from email messages. It takes input on STDIN, removes
executable MIME attachments, and gives the result to the local mailer. The
criteria for a taboo attachment are that the filename ends in one of
several "blacklisted" extensions (EXE, VBS, etc.).

Changes: A couple potential security holes have been cleaned up.

  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 00:59

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: Page Counters

About: BBclone is a PHP Web counter on steroids which displays individual
logs as well as aggregated data. It is a clone of Big Brother webstats,
except that it is written in PHP and it relies only on flat files (no
database needed). BBclone enables any Web site administrator to have a
very precise view of who visit the website: OS, browser, date, referring
page etc. Main features include reload resistance, hostname resolution,
proxy workaround, and blacklist.

Changes: All the code is being rewritten and split into several
sub-directories. A new installation script written in PHP was included,
and a new language file format is being used. All of the stats were merged
in one PHP file, and have been separated into several pages (global,
detailed, and time stats). Time statistics for the last day, week, month,
and year are now available.

About: Botan (formerly OpenCL) is a library of cryptographic algorithms,
written in C++. It currently includes a wide selection of block and stream
ciphers, public key algorithms, hash functions, and message authentication
codes, plus a high level filter-based interface.

Changes: Various bugfixes and optimizations were made in the
multiple-precision integer routines. Compiler flags were tweaked to avoid
bugs in GCC.

  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 04:49

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: In this release token extraction methods can now optionally limit
input and throw an exception if the token exceeds the limit. This new
feature is targeted to real-world networking applications. A new section,
"Portability and Performance Issues", and an alphabetical reference for
all public symbols have been added in the documentation. Examples for the
sockets interface and some other modules have been rewritten to be cleaner
and more educational.

Desktop Environment :: Gnome
System :: Networking

About: Cheops-ng is a network management tool for mapping and monitoring
your network. It has host/network discovery functionality and OS
detection, and does a port scan of each computer to tell what services are
running. It can probe FTP, HTTP, ssh, email (port 25), news, IMAP, and VNC
to see what version and type of server is running on those ports.

Changes: Added software to report the state of scanned ports (open,
closed, or filtered), added software to display the RPC version and
information from nmap scans, added software for taking screenshots, and
fixed XML parsing problems. Bugs were fixed in the IO processing code, and
an option for truncating a FQDN down to the hostname was included. RPMS
are now available.

[014] - ChipVault 2002.08
  by khubbard (http://freshmeat.net/users/khubbard/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 03:10

Scientific/Engineering :: Electronic Design Automation (EDA)
Text Editors :: Integrated Development Environments (IDE)

About: ChipVault is a chip development program for organizing VHDL and
Verilog designs. ChipVault displays designs hierarchically and provides
for rapid design navigation and editor launching. ChipVault provides hooks
for performing bottom-up tasks such as launching RTL compilers, synthesis,
block generation and instantiation, and includes simple to use Revision
Control and Issue Tracking systems to help facilitate large group design
projects with multiple designers and hundreds of design files. ChipVault
is written in Perl and is small, fast, and efficient.

Changes: A CVtogo feature was added for importing and exporting chip
design databases to Palm PDAs. A new HLIST generation wizard was added,
and the Tab key was bound for rapid file check-ins and outs. A
Report_Analysis() feature analyzes synthesis reports, and a trace log was
added for developers. MTI path support allows for multiple users
performing simultaneous simulations. Approximately 20 miscellaneous
bugfixes were also made.

[015] - Cook 2.21
  by Peter Miller (http://freshmeat.net/users/pmiller/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 11:02

Software Development :: Build Tools

About: Cook is a tool for constructing files. It is given a set of files
to create, and recipes of how to create them. In any non-trivial program
there will be prerequisites to performing the actions necessary to
creating any file, such as include files. Cook provides a mechanism to
define these. When a program is being developed or maintained, the
programmer will typically change one file of several which comprise the
program. Cook examines the last-modified times of the files to see when
the prerequisites of a file have changed, implying that the file needs to
be recreated as it is logically out of date.

Changes: The c_incl(1) command now accepts the -stripdot and -nostripdot
options. These may be used to control the removal of redundant leading dot
directories. A bug has been fixed where cascade recipes failed to heed the
stripdot setting. There is a new [stripdot] function, so that you can
strip leading dot directories from file names within functions. A bug has
been fixed in how the builtin functions which manipulate build graphs were
called. This fixes a problem with freeing a string which had already been
freed.

[016] - CrossOver Plugin 1.1.3
  by Jeremy Newman (http://freshmeat.net/users/laxdragon/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 16:37

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Viewers
Multimedia :: Video :: Display

About: CrossOver Plugin lets you use Windows plugins directly in your
Linux browser. With CrossOver you can watch QuickTime movies, play
Shockwave Director games, and even view Word, Excel, and Powerpoint
documents using the Microsoft viewers.

Changes: This release fixes the QuickTime 6 installation issues. CrossOver
Plugin now ships with a known good FreeType library. It has been updated
to work with both FreeType 2.0.x and 2.1.x libraries. The stale socket
issues should be gone, greatly reducing the need for running
cleanup_crossover.sh. Improved multi-user support, notably for Windows
Media Player, has been added. PluginSetup will now detect if a browser is
running during the installation of a plugin and issue a warning. Upgrades
and uninstallations should be much cleaner. Many other fixes have been
made.

[017] - CSBuddy 1.0.1
  by Eleventh Hour (http://freshmeat.net/users/xihr/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 20:12

Games/Entertainment :: First Person Shooters
Utilities

About: CSBuddy is a tool designed to help Counter-Strike server owners,
particularly those running AdminMod. It maintains a queryable database of
all players that have been seen on the server, and it filters the raw logs
of a Counter-Strike server and distills them into a single CSBuddy log
which shows only high-level activity such as excessive friendly fire
incidents, admin activity, and players complaining about misbehavior or
saying suspicious things. This tool is built upon an included
Counter-Strike log file parser which is provided in a simple derivable
class.

Changes: A fix for a minor bug where normal say events were not being
reported in the .chat log file.

[018] - Cyrus IMAP Server 2.1.8
  by Rob Siemborski (http://freshmeat.net/users/robsiemb/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 14:53

Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
Internet

About: The Cyrus IMAP server is generally intended to be run on sealed
systems, where normal users are not permitted to log in. The mailbox
database is stored in parts of the filesystem that are private to Cyrus.
All user access to mail is through the IMAP, POP3, or KPOP protocols. The
private mailbox database design gives the server large advantages in
efficiency, scalability, and administratability. Multiple concurrent
read/write connections to the same mailbox are permitted. The server
supports access control lists on mailboxes and storage quotas on mailbox
hierarchies, multiple SASL mechanisms, and the Sieve mail filtering
language.

Changes: This release fixes a locking problem during CREATE operations
that was introduced in 2.1.7. It also includes a performance improvement
for RENAME operations and a small fix to the rehash script.

System :: Archiving :: Backup

About: Duplicity is an incremental backup tool that backs up files and
directories by encrypting tar- format volumes with GnuPG and uploading
them to a file server. It supports local and ssh/scp back-ends. Because
it uses librsync, archives only record the parts of files that have
changed since the last backup. It supports deleted files, full Unix
permissions, directories, symbolic links, and fifos, but not hard links.

  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 11:43

Text Processing
Utilities

About: Enca detects the encoding of text files, on the basis of knowledge
of their language. Then it can convert them to other encodings, allowing
you to recode files without knowing their current encoding. It can
currently detect encoding of Belarussian, Czech, Polish, Russian, Slovak,
and Ukrainian texts, and a few Unicode variants, independently on
language.

Changes: Three new languages were added: Belarussian, Polish, and
Ukrainian. Enca was split into a charset detection library and a frontend.

[067] - Perl MD5 Secure Login 0.30
  by Alan Raetz (http://freshmeat.net/users/alanraetz/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 20:14

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

About: Perl MD5 Secure Login is a Web-based framework for implementing an
MD5-based encryption scheme on both client (using browser JavaScript) and
server (using Perl Digest::MD5) for a secure password login to Web
applications. Unlike .htaccess, the password is never stored or
transmitted as plain text.

Changes: Cookies sessions now check the IP address of the client. During
the initial user authorization, their IP address is stored, referenced by
their cookie ID. The session cookie and the current environment IP address
must match during future accesses, or the cookie session validation will
fail. Also, if the md5.js javascript file was not installed in the right
location, the password would be sent un-encrypted. The javascript md5 code
is now output to the browser with a Perl print statement. Since the MD5
algorithm is public, it doesn't matter that people can see the MD5 code.

[097] - Webfish Linux 1.2 (Fishwall)
  by rune (http://freshmeat.net/users/webfishrune/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 10:36

About: Webfish Linux is aimed at servers, routers, and customised
workstations for experienced Linux users. It attempts to get away from the
bloat factor of many common distributions, and does not include large
amounts of binary packages or a package manager. It is based on a small
base set that provides kernel, gcc, Perl, sed, awk, bash, ethernet tools,
etc. (basically, all that is required to run a base system and compile
software but not any software itself).

Changes: The code was tidied up. More functions for handling the flushing
of different tables were added. The handy redirect and block commands were
expanded upon.

[102] - ZoneMaster 0.98
  by Andy Wolf (http://freshmeat.net/users/awolf/)
  Tuesday, August 27th 2002 06:40

Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
Software Development :: Libraries :: Perl Modules

About: ZoneMaster is a tool for zone file and name server management. It
consists of a library that can configure BIND and a Web-based user
interface that is used to access the data that is stored in a database. A
bootstrap script allows you to initialize the database with all necessary
information retrieved from an existing configuration. All modifications
are saved as jobs in the database, and a job handler makes the necessary
changes from time to time. The user interface is based on XSLT-stylesheets
and can be easily modified.

Changes: Internal changes were made, along with another improvement to the
persistance mechanism. Support for an unlimited number of slave servers
was added, the Web-based user interface was optimized, and a bug in the
SOA editiing was fixed. The job handler now increments the serial number
automatically.
