BSDstats is an attempt to produce reasonably accurate statistics on
deployments of BSD operating systems. This is useful for marketing,
project advocacy, hardware vendors and purchasers, device driver
maintainers, and port maintainers.
The major problem that we are trying to address is vendors who do not
feel that BSD operating systems present enough of a market to bother
supporting.
Meant to be run monthly or during bootup, this script submits
statistics anonymously to a central server (http://bsdstats.org).
Potentially sensitive details like IP addresses and hostnames are not
stored by or relayed through the BSDstats server.
PHP MogileFS is a client library to communicate with MogileFS trackers.
Those trackers are part of the distributed filesystem MogileFS created
by Danga Interactive (http://www.danga.com/) and used in serveral large
scale projects like LiveJournal.
The btsixad daemon allows the PlayStation 3 Sixaxis gamepad to be used
wirelessly over Bluetooth. When a gamepad is connected, the daemon cre-
ates a virtual USB HID device named btsixa*. This can be symlinked to
uhid* and used like an ordinary USB joystick or gamepad by SDL and other
programs.
bulk_extractor is a C++ program that scans a disk image, a file,
or a directory of files and extracts useful information without
parsing the file system or file system structures. The results are
stored in feature files that can be easily inspected, parsed, or
processed with automated tools. bulk_extractor also creates
histograms of features that it finds, as features that are more
common tend to be more important.
'abck' is an interactive tool to examine intrusion attempts and decide
what, if anything, to do about them. It reads through
/var/log/messages looking for evidence of an intrusion attempt. Upon
finding such a record, 'abck' qualifies it against information
supplied by the user on the command line to determine if the record is
to be processed. As packaged, 'abck' handles several common types of
intrusion attempt records, but it can easily be expanded to handle
others.
You need a reasonably current copy of Python to run the main script.
Intel's Active Management Technology is a simple embedded subsystem
that helps you manage remote servers. In particular you can power off
or reset a remote system, regardless of the state of the operating
system.
amtc is a tool to efficiently monitor, power-control on a scheduled
basis and interactively manage a bigger bunch of PCs equipped with
Intel vPro technology, distributed over several rooms. Having a
practical tool for this purpose massively eases system management
procedures, from scheduled, unattended OS-re-installs to individual,
interactive remote power management needs.
busybox is a set of common utilities built as a single
crunched binary, and sometimes stripped down in features
to fit the needs of embedded systems.
Byobu is a Japanese term for decorative, multi-panel screens that serve as
folding room dividers. As an open source project, Byobu is an elegant
enhancement of the otherwise functional, plain, practical GNU Screen. Byobu
includes an enhanced profile and configuration utilities for the GNU screen
window manager, such as toggle-able system status notifications.
Catfish is a GTK based search utility.
This extension allows changing the current process' name on Linux and *BSD
systems. This is useful when using pcntl_fork() to identify running
processes in process list
