EncFS is an encrypted pass-through filesystem which runs in userspace,
using the FUSE kernel module. Similar in design to CFS and other
pass-through filesystems, all data is encrypted and stored in the
underlying filesystem. Unlike loopback filesystems, there is no
predetermined or pre-allocated filesystem size.
This is a port of am-utils, The Berkeley Automounter Suite of Utilities
The Berkeley Automounter, Amd, may be used as a replacement for Sun's
automounter.
An automounter maintains a cache of mounted file systems. File systems
are mounted on demand when they are first referenced, and unmounted
after a period of inactivity. This helps to centralize all file system
access, provide a uniform site-wide namespace, and minimize downtimes
for clients.
Actually, we're not trying to reinvent the wheel here,
rather adapt it to suit a slightly different purpose.
Below are a few main points and reasons as to why we've created filetype:
* file does not work so well for loosely defined filetypes ( ie, vCards )
* file uses a text-based type database which can impose unwanted delays
in frequently invoked processes
* file does not have a heirachial type tree (ie, executable->MSDOS->EXE )
* file is not designed to be incorporated at a source level into existing
projects
* Simpler and broader type detection engine ( 'file' is very good at
pulling out every detail about a file, ie, the resolution of an image,
however we do not wish to seek out such fine details )
The sqlfs filesystem implements a POSIX style file system on top of an SQLite
database. It allows applications to have access to a full read/write
file system in a single file, complete with its own file hierarchy and name
space. This is useful for applications which needs structured storage, such
as embedding documents within documents, or management of configuration
data or preferences.
Interface between FUSE and the Gnome VFS 2.0. It allows the user to mount
everything you can access via the Nautilus file manager. But of course you
can use a convenient CLI instead of the Desktop.
Gigolo is a frontend to easily manage connections to local and
remote filesystems using GIO/GVfs. It allows you to
quickly connect/mount a remote filesystem and manage bookmarks of such.
It is part of the Xfce Goodies project and the Subversion respository
is hosted on the Xfce servers though it does not have any hard
Xfce dependencies and can be used on other desktop environments as well.
The only hard dependency is GTK2.
Another GPL GTK2 frontend for cdrecord, mkisofs, readcd and sox!
With graveman you can burn audio cd (wav, ogg, mp3), data cd, and duplicate cd.
Common startup and shutdown subroutines used by GNOME scripts.
iogen is a lightweight tool that generates heavily fragmented I/O. It
accomplishes this by forking a number of children that run I/O to a
filesystem.
This tool is intended to test storage stacks under stress and worst case
scenarios. However due to heavy fragmentation of the I/O files, it tends
to bypass caching algorithms in storage stacks.
The IP Subnet Calculator is a tool that allows network administrators to
make calculations that will assist in subnetting a network. It also has a
number of other useful functions.
