tcptraceroute is a traceroute implementation using TCP packets.
The more traditional traceroute(8) sends out either UDP or ICMP ECHO packets
with a TTL of one, and increments the TTL until the destination has been
reached. By printing the gateways that generate ICMP time exceeded messages
along the way, it is able to determine the path packets are taking to reach the
destination.
The problem is that with the widespread use of firewalls on the modern Internet,
many of the packets that traceroute(8) sends out end up being filtered, making
it impossible to completely trace the path to the destination. However, in many
cases, these firewalls will permit inbound TCP packets to specific ports that
hosts sitting behind the firewall are listening for connections on. By sending
out TCP SYN packets instead of UDP or ICMP ECHO packets, tcptraceroute is able
to bypass the most common firewall filters.
Net::Printer
============
Perl module for directly printing to a print server/printer without
having to create a pipe to either lpr or lp. This essentially mimics
what the BSD LPR program does by connecting directly to the line
printer printer port (almost always 515), and transmitting the data
and control information to the print server.
Please note that this module only communicates with the BSD Line
Printer Daemon Protocol as described in RFC-1179. It does not
natively speak to remote print servers via SMB, Apple-Talk or
Netware. Remote print services running lpsched, such as Sun Solaris
or other Sys V-derived operating systems, will work so long as the
print spoolers are set up to understand the BSD protocol. Most modern
network-capable laser printers, such as those manufactured by HP and
LexMark, also "speak" BSD.
CDO is a collection of command line Operators to manipulate and analyse Climate

There are more than 250 operators available. The following table gives a short
overview about the main categories.
* File information (info, sinfo, diff, ...)
* File operations (copy, cat, merge, split*, ...)
* Selection (selcode, selvar, sellevel, seltimestep, ...)
* Missing values (setctomiss, setmisstoc, setrtomiss)
* Arithmetic (add, sub, mul, div, ...)
* Mathematical functions (sqrt, exp, log, sin, cos, ...)
* Comparision (eq, ne, le, lt, ge, gt, ...)
* Conditions (ifthen, ifnotthen, ifthenc, ifnotthenc)
* Field statistic (fldsum, fldavg, fldstd, fldmin, fldmax, ...)
* Vertical statistic (vertsum, vertavg, vertstd, vertmin, ...)
* Time range statistic (timavg, yearavg, monavg, dayavg, ...)
* Ensemble statistic (enssum, ensavg, ensstd, ensmin, ...)
* Regression (detrend)
* Field interpolation (remapbil, remapcon, remapdis, ...)
* Vertical interpolation (ml2pl, ml2hl)
* Time interpolation (inttime, intyear)
Nmap is a utility for network exploration and security auditing.
It supports various types of host discovery (determine which hosts
are up), many port scanning techniques for different protocols,
version detection (determine service protocols and application
versions listening behind ports), and TCP/IP stack fingerprinting
(remote host OS or device identification). Nmap also offers
flexible target and port specification, decoy/stealth scanning,
sunRPC scanning, and much more.
Also included is Ncat, the nc(1) work-a-like of the Nmap project.
Refer to the separate port security/zenmap for those parts of the
Nmap toolset which depend on python. The translated manual pages
for Nmap are contained in security/nmap-i18n-man.

Tie::EncryptedHash augments Perl hash semantics to build secure, encrypting
containers of data. Tie::EncryptedHash introduces special hash fields that are
coupled with encrypt/decrypt routines to encrypt assignments at STORE() and
decrypt retrievals at FETCH(). By design, encrypting fields are associated with
keys that begin in single underscore. The remaining keyspace is used for
accessing normal hash fields, which are retained without modification.
While the password is set, a Tie::EncryptedHash behaves exactly like a standard
Perl hash. This is its transparent mode of access. Encrypting and normal fields
are identical in this mode. When password is deleted, encrypting fields are
accessible only as ciphertext. This is Tie::EncryptedHash's opaque mode of
access, optimized for serialization.

Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd with a focus on
security and reliability.
Among others, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering,
reliable syslog over TCP, SSL, TLS and RELP, writing to databases
(MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and many more), email alerting, fully
configurable output formats (including high-precision timestamps),
the ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, on-the-wire
message compression, and the ability to convert text files to syslog.
It is a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and able to work with
the same configuration file syntax. Its advanced features make it
suitable for enterprise-class, encryption protected syslog relay
chains while at the same time being very easy to setup for the
novice user.
Tracking v7-devel
DVD+RW Tools by Andy Polyakov. This software allows one to perform DVD
recording using a DVD burner, primarily via the "growisofs" utility.
growisofs was originally designed as a frontend to mkisofs to facilitate
appending of data to ISO9660 volumes residing on random-access media such as
DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, plain files, hard disk partitions. In the course of
development general purpose DVD recording support was implemented, and as of
now growisofs supports not only random-access media, but even mastering of
multi-session DVD media such as DVD+R and DVD-R/-RW. In addition growisofs
supports first-/single-session recording of arbitrary pre-mastered image
(formatted as UDF, ISO9660, or any other file system, if formatted at all)
to all supported DVD media types.
SMBNetFS is a filesystem that allow you to use samba/microsoft network
in the same manner as the network neighborhood in Microsoft Windows.
Featuries:
* you can use Samba/Microsoft network as a regular Unix filesystem
* workgroup/computer/share entries are dynamically created
* Windows domain supported
* kerberos support (New)
* user defined workgroup/link/hosts are supported
* national character supported
* in config files you can specify different user/password to access
different network shares
* you can access any computer in the world by "cd mountpoint/ip-addr"
command, where "ip-addr" is the IP address of the desired computer. Do
not warry that there is no file with such name :-)
* command "cd mountpoint/username:password@computer_or_ip" allows
you to access "computer_or_ip" as user "username" with password
"password" (this is insecure, but usefull)
MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original tail program.
The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your console (with
ncurses). It can also monitor wildcards: if another file matching the wildcard
has a more recent modification date, it will automatically switch to that file.
That way you can, for example, monitor a complete directory of files. Merging
of 2 or even more logfiles is possible. It can also use colors while displaying
the logfiles (through regular expressions), for faster recognition of what is
important and what not. It can also filter lines (again with regular
expressions). It has interactive menus for editing given regular expressions
and deleting and adding windows. One can also have windows with the output of
shell scripts and other software. When viewing the output of external software,
MultiTail can mimic the functionality of tools like 'watch' and such.
