Monitorix is a free, open source, lightweight system monitoring tool designed
to monitor as many services and system resources as possible. It has been
created to be used under production UNIX/Linux servers, but due to its
simplicity and small size may also be used to monitor embedded devices as
well.
It mainly consists mainly of two programs: a collector, called monitorix, which
is a Perl daemon that is started automatically like any other system service,
and a CGI script called monitorix.cgi.
pam_mount is a Pluggable Authentication Module that can mount volumes for a
user session.
This module is aimed at environments with central file servers that a user
wishes to mount on login and unmount on logout, such as (semi-)diskless
stations where many users can logon and where statically mounting the entire
/home from a server is a security risk, or listing all possible volumes in
/etc/fstab is not feasible.
Zorba is a general purpose XQuery processor implementing in C++ the W3C family
of specifications. The query processor has been designed to be embeddable in a
variety of environments such as other programming languages extended with XML
processing capabilities, browsers, database servers, XML message dispatchers,
or smartphones. Zorba can be accessed through APIs from C, C++, Ruby, Python,
Java, and PHP. Zorba runs on most platforms and is available under the Apache
license v2.
This is CGIWrap - a gateway that allows more secure user access to
CGI programs on an HTTPd server than is provided by the Web server
itself. The primary function of CGIWrap is to make certain that
any CGI script runs with the permissions of the user who installed
it, and not those of the Web server.
CGIWrap works with NCSA httpd, Apache, CERN httpd, NetSite Commerce
and Communications servers, and probably any other Unix-based Web
server software that supports CGI.
Hydra is a high performance multi-threaded web server. Unlike traditional
multi-threaded web servers, Hydra uses a constant, but configurable, pool
of threads and each thread can handle several connections by multiplexing
the connections. This may remind you of a non-blocking server, and this is
true, but Hydra does not have the killing limitation of a non-blocking
server, the confinement to one CPU. Hydra will take advantage of every
available CPU in a system.
Interchange is the open source alternative to commercial e-commerce
servers and "best of breed" application server/component applications.
Interchange is one of the most powerful tools available to automate and
database-enable your web site or build online applications. It's also
one of the easiest tools to learn, plus it's open source, making it the
most open and least expensive solution to implement.
For some documentation and resources for it have a look at
http://www.interchange.rtfm.info/
mod_auth_pubtkt is a simple Web single sign-on (SSO) solution for Apache. It
validates authentication tickets provided by the client in a cookie using
public-key cryptography (DSA or RSA). Thus, only the login server that
generates the tickets needs to possess the private key, while Web servers
can verify tickets given only the public key. The implementation of the
login server is left to the user, but an example and a library in PHP are
provided with the distribution.
This the FCGI module for perl5 which enables CGI scripts to take
advantage of servers that are FastCGI-enabled. This module does not abstract
the writing of CGIs themselves, for that you should refer to the p5-CGI
module. For more information about FastCGI, the performance enhancements it
offers, and how to write scripts using it, visit their web site at
http://www.fastcgi.com/
Jifty -- Just Do It.
Jifty is yet another web framework. Jifty tries not to make you say
things more than once. Out of the proverbial box, Jifty comes with one
way to do everything you should need to do: One database mapper, one
templating system, one web services layer, one AJAX toolkit, one set of
handlers for standalone or FastCGI servers. We work hard to make all the
bits play well together, so you don't have to.
Mongoose is a small, fast and easy to use web server. It supports
CGI, SSI, SSL, Digest auth, Websocket, WEbDAV, Resumed download, URL
rewrite, file blacklist. Having SHTTPD as a predecessor, another
feature of mongoose is the ability to embed it into existing C/C++
applications. Embedded API is very clean and simple.
Mongoose has small memory footprint. Use it when other
web servers like Apache are too heavy for your tasks.
