VMSBACKUP reads VMS BACKUP tapes.
Main features:
- swaps bytes from big-endian to little-endian, if required.
- savesets can be selected individually.
- can preserve directory structure.
- excludes vms specific files (eg executables and objects).
- converts vms version numbering semicolons to colons.
This package allows you to read files from Veritas Journaled Filesystem.
Current version seems to support versions 2 and 4 (and 3, but this version
was never released, AFAIK). I don't plan a write version, because I don't
know journal log structure and I have *no* time to play with it. But I plan
a Linux kernel implementation.
This port contains packages from a near-minimal installation of CentOS 6
Linux. These packages, in conjunction with the Linux kernel module,
form the basis of the Linux compatibility environment. It is designed to
provide a nice user experience by using the FreeBSD configuration for
corresponding Linux stuff where possible. Because of this any work which
needs to chroot into the Linux base may not work as expected (no fallthrough
to the FreeBSD config possible).
OpenMSX, the open source MSX emulator that tries to achieve
near-perfect emulation by using a novel emulation model.
VMware Command Line Tools
On this page, you'll find command line programs which can replace and/or
supplement the VMware's official VMwareTools.
These programs use VMware's undocumented and therefore not officially
supported feature to communicate with VMware (see VMware Backdoor I/O Port).
Information on these functions have come entirely from my personal research
and quite a few contributions by fellow VMware users.
These programs are intended partly as illustrative examples of how to use the
VMware backdoor function and I have cut many corners writing them.
* vmw: generic backdoor access program
* vmshrink: virtual disk shrink program
* vmftp: host-guest file transfer program

The VPCS can simulate up to 9 PCs. You can ping/traceroute them, or
ping/traceroute the other hosts/routers from the virtual PCs when you study the
Cisco routers in the Dynamips. VPCS is not the traditional PC, it is just a
program running on the Linux or FreeBSD, and only few network commands can be
used in it. But VPCS can give you a big hand when you study the Cisco devices in
the Dynamips. VPCS can replace the routers or VMware boxes which are used as PCs
in the Dynamips network. It can save your CPU/Memory. It is very small.
VPCS can be run in udp or ether mode. In the udp mode, VPCS sends or receives
the packets via udp. In the ether mode, via /dev/tap.
Wine is a Microsoft Windows compatibility layer (or program loader)
capable of running Windows applications on i386 and compatible CPUs.
Windows programs running in Wine act as native programs would, running
without the performance or memory usage penalties of an emulator, with
a similar look and feel to other applications on your desktop.
Many applications already work, more or less, including versions of
Microsoft Office and several games.

Wine implements its own version of Internet Explorer which is based on a
custom version of Mozilla's Gecko Layout Engine. This engine is downloaded
automatically the first time a web page is loaded unless, as done by this
port, the engine is pre-installed on the user's system.
