LWP::Authen::Wsse allows LWP to authenticate against servers that are using
the X-WSSE authentication scheme, as required by the Atom Authentication API.
The module is used indirectly through LWP, rather than including it directly
in your code. The LWP system will invoke the WSSE authentication when it
encounters the authentication scheme while attempting to retrieve a URL
from a server.
LWP::UserAgent suitable for simulating and testing network calls.
It overrides a few key low-level methods of LWP::UserAgent that are
concerned with actually sending your request over the network,
allowing an interception of that request and simulating a particular
response. This greatly facilitates testing of client networking
code where the server follows a known protocol.
A Perl implementation of the Facebook API, working off of the
canonical Java and PHP implementations. By default it uses JSON::Any
to parse the response returned by Facebook's server. There is an option
to return the raw response in either XML or JSON.
The Astro::ADS module is an objected orientated Perl interface to the
Astrophysics Data System (ADS) abstract service. The ADS is a NASA-funded
project whose main resource is an Abstract Service, which includes four sets
of abstracts:
1) astronomy and astrophysics, containing 719,449 abstracts;
2) instrumentation, containing 608,834 abstracts;
3) physics and geophysics, containing 1,079,814 abstracts; and
4) Los Alamos preprint server, containing 4,104 abstracts.
Each dataset can be searched by author, object name (astronomy only), title,
or abstract text words.
dkftpbench is an FTP benchmark program inspired by SPECweb99. The result of
the benchmark is a number-of-simultaneous-users rating; after running the
benchmark properly, you have a good idea how many simultaneous dialup clients
a server can support. The target bandwidth per client is set at 28.8
kilobits/second to model dialup users; this is important for servers on the
real Internet, which often serve thousands of clients on only 10 MBits/sec of
bandwidth.
INADYN is a free, multi-platform dynamic DNS update client. It gives the
possibility to have your own fixed hostname registered on the Internet,
although your IP might be changing. It checks periodically whether the IP
address stored by the DNS server is the real current IP address of the machine
that is running INADYN.
INADYN supports the following dynamic DNS services:
- dyndns.org (in all three flavors: dynamic, static, custom)
- freedns.afraid.org
- no-ip.com
- zoneedit.com
cmdftp is a command line FTP client for Unix systems that features
include passive mode for all data transfers, shell like transparent
syntax for local and remote modes, multiple and recursive file
transfers using wildcards, recursive copy and move commands, remote and
local text file viewing and editing, network errors detection and
resuming of currently executing command, partial download resuming (if
server accepts REST command), tab completion for both local and remote
names, autologin using classic ~/.netrc approach, large file support,
and more.
Mono is an open source implementation of .NET Development Framework. Its
objective is to enable UNIX developers to build and deploy cross-platform
.NET Applications. The project implements various technologies developed by
Microsoft that have now been submitted to the ECMA for standardization.
Mono provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and
server applications on BSD, Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix.
qSheff is a wrapper for the qmail queue that scans email for viruses and
spam. Infected messages are rejected before they reach the queue, so the
server doesn't perform any job for them. After checking the message, it
will wake the qmail queue. Some of the supported features:
- Antivirus executing (ClamAV)
- Header and body filtering
- Subject filtering
- Attachment blocking
- Quarantine support
- White/black lists
- Single line logging for qmail
- Basic DoS attack prevention
- And much more...
The FreeRADIUS Client is a framework and library for writing RADIUS
Clients which additionally includes radlogin, a flexible RADIUS aware
login replacement, a command line program to send RADIUS
authentication/authorisation requests and accounting records and a
utility to query the status of a RADIUS server. All these programs are
based on a library which lets you develop a RADIUS-aware application in
less than 50 lines of C code. It is highly portable and runs on Linux,
many BSD variants and Solaris.
