gwhois is a generic whois client. It strives to know for all existing
tlds and all ip address range the appropiate whois server to ask. You
can simple call gwhois with a query for some domain or some ip and it
will ask the right server for you! It can even query webforms which
are unfortunately the only query type supported by many bad nics.
gwhois can also be used as a whois server. You can call it from the
inetd and make it accessable via a normal standard whois client. This
allows for example using a Windows client and still make use of the
enhanced features of gwhois.
Hans makes it possible to tunnel IPv4 through ICMP echo packets, so you
could call it a ping tunnel. This can be useful when you find yourself
in the situation that your Internet access is firewalled, but pings are
allowed.
Hans runs on Linux as a client and a server. It runs on Mac OS X,
iPhone/iPod touch, FreeBSD and OpenBSD as a client only.
KNemo - the KDE Network Monitor
KNemo offers a network monitor similar to the one found in Windows.
For every network interface it displays an icon in the systray.
KRDC is a client application that allows you to view or even control
the desktop session on another machine that is running a compatible
server. VNC and RDP is supported.
KDE Desktop Sharing (krfb) is a small server for the RFB protocol,
better known as VNC. Unlike most other Unix/Linux RFB servers, KRfb
allows you to share your X11 session instead of creating a new X11
session.
hidentd is a simple and secure GPLed ident (RFC1413) server. It
requires either inetd, xinetd or ucspi-tcp to run. Basic
features:
* small and simple - around 300 lines of code
* secure - runs without root priviledges
* easy - no complicated configuration file syntax to learn.
* hidentd is entirely controlled with command line options.
* can be configured to provide fake usernames, protecting your privacy
* limited masqueraded/NAT connections support.
hinfo is a utility that will display information about a host. It is
primarily designed to find the owner of an IP block in order to direct
spam complaints to where they may do some good.
(maintainer's note: the DATAFILES are updated without the port version
necessarily being updated. Expect drift on distinfo. See hinfo-update.)
Although the home page of the software is at www.blars.org/hinfo.html,
that page is not reachable from the FreeBSD.org domain.
Honeyd is a small daemon that creates virtual hosts on a network. The
hosts can be configured to run arbitrary services, and their TCP
personality can be adapted so that they appear to be running certain
versions of operating systems. Honeyd enables a single host to claim
multiple addresses - I have tested up to 65536 - on a LAN for network
simulation.
hping is a command-line oriented TCP/IP packet assembler/analyzer.
The interface is inspired to the ping(8) Unix command, but hping isn't
only able to send ICMP echo requests. It supports TCP, UDP, ICMP and
RAW-IP protocols, has a traceroute mode, the ability to send files
between a covered channel, and many other features.
While hping was mainly used as a security tool in the past, it can be
used in many ways by people that don't care about security to test
networks and hosts.
hping3 adds the TCL scripting feature.
Bindings for Amazon Web Services (AWS), with the aim of supporting all
AWS services.
