Jailrc is an improved startup/shutdown script for FreeBSD jails. It contains the following changes to the original /etc/rc.d/jail script: - parameters support: you can specify any parameters supported by jail(8) - ZFS support: you can deletate ZFS datasets to jails - jails are not identified by a file in /var/spool/jail anymore - two new commands "create" and "remove" to manage persistent jails Please refer to the README file for more information.

xe is a tool for constructing command lines from file listings or arguments, which includes the best features of xargs(1) and apply(1). Benefits over xargs: - Sane defaults (behaves like xargs -d'\n' -I{} -n1 -r). - No weird parsing, arguments are separated linewise or by NUL byte. - Can also take arguments from command-line. - No shell involved unless -s is used. - {} replacing possible with multiple arguments.

The libutempter library provides interface for terminal emulators such as screen and xterm to record user sessions to utmp and wtmp files. The utempter is a privileged helper used by libutempter library to manipulate utmp and wtmp files. This implementation is based on ideas of RedHat's utempter by Erik Troan (version 0.5.2 at the moment of writing). There are two interfaces supported: old and new. New API is recommended for new applications, old - for compatibility with old software.

I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok! I sleep when idle, then I ship logs all day! I parse your logs, I eat the JVM agent for lunch! (This project was recently renamed from 'lumberjack' to 'logstash-forwarder' to make its intended use clear. The 'lumberjack' name now remains as the network protocol, and 'logstash-forwarder' is the name of the program. It's still the same lovely log forwarding program you love.)

BSD::Sysctl offers a native Perl interface for fetching sysctl values that describe the kernel state of BSD-like operating systems. This is around 80 times faster than scraping the output of the sysctl(8) program. This module handles the conversion of symbolic sysctl variable names to the internal numeric format, and this information, along with the details of how to format the results, are cached. Hence, the first call to sysctl requires three system calls, however, subsequent calls require only one call.

Interface for statvfs() and fstatvfs() Unless you need access to the bsize, flag, and namemax values, you should probably look at using Filesys::DfPortable or Filesys::Df instead. The statvfs() and fstatvfs() functions will return a list of values, or will return undef and set $! if there was an error. The values returned are described in the statvfs header or the statvfs() man page. The module assumes that if you have statvfs(), fstatvfs() will also be available.

This library allows you to manage schedule which has structure similar to crontab(5) format. It offers methods to detect clash between schedules (with or without duration considered), and can also tell when, and how often they clash. From the viewpoint of data structure, one major difference compared to crontab(5) is a concept of duration. Each schedule has its own duration, and clash detection can be done upon that. -Anton <tobez@FreeBSD.org>

The Pipe Magic Tools (PMT) are a small collection of filters which can be added to UNIX pipes. The filters include: speed Measures the speed of the data flowing through the pipe throttle Controls the speed of the data flowing through the pipe rot13 The famous rot13 algorithm rot47 The not-so-famous rot47 algorithm tolower Converts all alphabetic characters to lower case toupper Converts all alphabetic characters to upper case

Stat::lsMode generates mode and permission strings that look like the ones generated by the Unix ls -l command. For example, a regular file that is readable by everyone and writable only by its owner has the mode string -rw-r--r--. Stat::lsMode will either examine the file and produce the right mode string for you, or you can pass it the mode that you get back from Perl's stat call.

bsdconfig is a robust utility for configuring/managing various aspects of the FreeBSD Operating System. Feature-highlights include (but are not limited to): - Modular, stable, efficient and i18n-compatible. - Easily maintained/extendable sh(1) source/syntax. - Works with both dialog(1) in base and Xdialog(1) from ports (x11/xdialog). - Package management module loosely based on sysinstall but much improved. - rc.conf(5) configuration/management based on sysutils/sysrc. - Timezone configuration based on sysutils/tzdialog. - Networking management based on sysutils/host-setup.
