pacman is a utility which manages software packages in Linux. It
uses simple compressed files as a package format, and maintains a
text-based package database (more of a hierarchy), just in case
some hand tweaking is necessary.
pacman does not strive to "do everything." It will add, remove and
upgrade packages in the system, and it will allow you to query the
package database for installed packages, files and owners. It also
attempts to handle dependencies automatically and can download
packages from a remote server.
GOsa is a combination of system-administrator and end-user web
interface, designed to handle LDAP based setups. Provided is access
to posix, shadow, samba, proxy, fax, and kerberos accounts. It is able
to manage the postfix/cyrus server combination and can write user
adapted sieve scripts.
rclean provides a command-line tool to order and clean content of
rc.conf, using option order from /etc/defaults/rc.conf and printing only
choices that were different by the default value in /etc/rc.conf.
Output is customizable from "only used values" to "full listing".
This program will help you recover disks with bad sectors.
You can recover files as well complete devices.
In case if finds sectors which simply cannot be recoverd, it writes an
empty sector to the outputfile and continues. If you're recovering a CD
or a DVD and the program cannot read the sector in "normal mode", then
the program will try to read the sector in "RAW mode" (without error-checking
etc.).
This toolkit also has a utility called 'mergebad': mergebad merges multiple
images into one. This can be usefull when you have, for example, multiple CD's
with the same data which are all damaged. In such case, you can then first use
recoverdm to retrieve the data from the damaged CD's into image-files and then
combine them into one image with mergebad.
relaxconf contains a set of text menu based utilities for configuring RelaxBSD
(a LiveCD system base on FreeBSD),they're also useful for FreeBSD user.
relaxconf: The main menu, allow the following utilities.
relaxsnddetect: Auto detects audio cards (if present) and loads
appropriate modules.
relaxmountdisk: Auto mount other file systems (such as ufs,msdosfs,
ntfs,ext2fs).
relax[u]mountusb: Auto mount/umount USB removable storage.
relaxnetconf: Allow the user to setting network interface such as
ppp(pppoe),ethernet interface.
relaxxconf: Allow the user to generating an xorg.conf file for use
with Xorg(also XFree86).
relaxlangconf: Allow the user to appoint the locale language.
- Only for LiveCD:
relaxsavesetting: Allows user to save preferences in a compressed file.
relaxloadsetting: Auto seek and load preference save file in a partition.
relaxmediabackup: Backup your person data.
relaxrestore: Restore your person data.
relaxinstaller: Launch BSD/RelaxBSD Installer to install LiveCD.

The file renaming utilities consists of five programs designed to make renaming
of files faster and less cumbersome:
- qmv ("quick move") allows a bunch of file names to be edited in a text editor;
- imv ("interactive move") allows a single file name to be edited in the
terminal using the GNU Readline library
- qcp and icp are similar to qmv and imv but copy files instead of moving them;
- deurlname removes URL encoded characters (such as %20 representing space) from
file names.
The samefile program finds files with identical contents (independent of
file name). Typical usage would be
find / -print | samefile
turning up megabytes of wasted disk space due to duplicates. Try it,
you'll be baffled.
slst generates statistics from the output of syslog.
With slst one can find tendencies and unexpected changes in the behaviour of
the running processes.
Duplicity backs directories by producing encrypted tar-format volumes and
uploading them to a remote or local file server. Because duplicity uses
librsync, the incremental archives are space efficient and only record the
parts of files that have changed since the last backup. Because duplicity
uses GnuPG to encrypt and/or sign these archives, they will be safe from
spying and/or modification by the server.
UDFclient is a userland implementation of the UDF filingsystem as defined by
the OSTA group. UDFclient is designed to be a study platform and a run-up to
a full read and write kernel level implementation.
UDFclient basicly provides a userinterface not unlike ftp(1) but allways
fetches files recursively from the disc(s).
