syslog-ng is an enhanced log daemon, supporting a wide range of input and
output methods: syslog, unstructured text, message queues, databases (SQL
and NoSQL alike) and more.
Key features:
* receive and send RFC3164 and RFC5424 style syslog messages
* work with any kind of unstructured data
* receive and send JSON formatted messages
* classify and structure logs with builtin parsers (csv-parser(),
db-parser(), ...)
* normalize, crunch and process logs as they flow through the system
* hand on messages for further processing using message queues (like
AMQP), files or databases (like PostgreSQL or MongoDB).
The official home page of syslog-ng is:

DSBMD is a media/filesystem type detecting daemon that allows clients to mount
storage devices.
DSBMD watches the mount table for changes, monitors devd events for new storage
devices, polls CD/DVD drives and card readers for media change events, deter-
mines media types, volume names, and filesystem types. Mountable devices,
changes in the mount table as well as device add/remove events and altered
states of mountable devices are presented to clients. Clients can request DSBMD
to mount, unmount, and eject media, or set the CD/DVD reading speed.
GNU GRUB is a multiboot boot loader. It was derived from GRUB, the GRand
Unified Bootloader, which was originally designed and implemented by Erich
Stefan Boleyn.
This port does not install GRUB on the master boot record of your hard drive.
To do this you will need to read the info page that is installed by the port.
This port includes additional patches and fixes making it work properly
with ZFS boot-environments. Users on UFS will probably want to install the
regular sysutils/grub2 port.
This set of scripts allows you to imitate Windows feature to automount some
network shares at login time. It is relatively difficult in setup - you should
understand, what you do, know how to install SMB/CIFS support into a kernel,
how to setup /etc/nsmb.conf and .nsmbrc files, etc.
Script are written on Shell. Uses nbtscan and host utilites to locate Windows
boxes when generated .nsmbrc file in semi-automated mode with smb2nsmbrc helper
script. Also uses their own file .mssmbrc to describe any share, mounted with
mountsmb2.
What's MyBashBurn?
Basically, it is no more than a Terminal User Interface (TUI) frontend based of
the CD burning shell script called BashBurn for GNU/Linux; this originally does
not have the best eye-candy CD-burning UI, nevertheless, MyBashBurn uses dialog
boxes/functions which draws (using ncurses) windows onto the screen. MyBashBurn
dialog boxes offer good functionality, and has very good capabilities of
automatically finding dependencies and auto detecting devices CD/DVD RW. In
short, do not reinvent the wheel - just let MyBashBurn do what you want it to
do.
OpenIPMI was designed to aid building "complex IPMI management software".
OpenIPMI library will connect with an IPMI controller, detect any
management controllers on the bus, get their SDRs, manage all the
entities in the system, manage the event log, and a host of other
things. OpenIPMI is also dynamic and event-driven. It will come up
and start discovering things in the managed system. As it discovers
things, it will report them to the software using it (assuming the
software has asked for this reporting).
arclog archives the log files monthly. It strips off log entries that
belongs to previous months, and then compresses and saves them to archived
files named logfile.yyyymm.gz.
Currently, arclog supports Apache access log, Syslog, NTP, Apache 1 SSL
engine log and my own bracketed, modified ISO date/time log file formats,
and gzip and bzip2 compression methods. Several software projects log (or
can log) in a format compatible with the Apache access log, like CUPS,
ProFTPD, Pure-FTPd... etc., and arclog can archive their Apache-like log
files, too.
Beats is the platform for building lightweight, open source data
shippers for many types of operational data you want to enrich with
Logstash, search and analyze in Elasticsearch, and visualize in Kibana.
Whether you're interested in log files, infrastructure metrics, network
packets, or any other type of data, Beats serves as the foundation for
keeping a beat on your data.
Packetbeat is the open source data shipper that integrates with
Elasticsearch and Kibana to provide real-time analytics for web,
database, and other network protocols.
mcelog processes machine checks (in particular memory and CPU
hardware errors) on modern x86-based Unix systems and
produces human-readable output.
This software is heavily patched to work on FreeBSD systems,
and thus provides an extremely limited subset of features as
of this writing (for example, daemon mode is not currently
supported).
The primary purpose is to provide a way to decode MCE output
from the FreeBSD kernel into something more human-readable
using the command 'mcelog --no-dmi --ascii'.
FreeBSD conversion patches were originally written by John
Baldwin <jhb@freebsd.org> and later incorporated into this
port.
Puppet master is a Ruby application that compiles configurations
for any number of Puppet agent nodes, using Puppet code and various
other data sources. (For more info, see Overview of Puppet's
Architecture.)
Puppet Server is an application that runs on the Java Virtual Machine
(JVM) and provides the same services as the classic Puppet master
application. It mostly does this by running the existing Puppet
master code in several JRuby interpreters, but it replaces some
parts of the classic application with new services written in
Clojure.
