HPI includes resource modeling; access to and control over sensor, control, watchdog, and inventory data associated with resources; abstracted System Event Log interfaces; hardware events and alarms; and a managed hotswap interface.

Capistrano is a standalone utility that can also integrate nicely with Rails. You simply provide SwitchTower with a deployment "recipe" that describes your various servers and their roles, and voila! You magically have single-command deployment. It even allows you to roll a bad version out of production and revert back to the previous release.

Terraform provides a common configuration to launch infrastructure - from physical and virtual servers to email and DNS providers. Once launched, Terraform safely and efficiently changes infrastructure as the configuration is evolved. Simple file based configuration gives you a single view of your entire infrastructure.

vmdktool converts raw filesystems to VMDK files and vice versa. VMDK files can be imported directly into most Virtual Machine servers as guest filesystems. Automatic machine deployments into products such as VMware's ESXi and VirtualBox requires the ability to construct VMDK files as the initial filesystem images for the created guests. vmdktool is free.

tlsdate sets the local clock by securely connecting with TLS to remote servers and extracting the remote time out of the secure handshake. Unlike ntpdate, tlsdate uses TCP, for instance connecting to a remote HTTPS or TLS enabled service, and provides some protection against adversaries that try to feed you malicious time information.

The Dictionary Server Protocol (DICT) is a TCP transaction based query/response protocol that allows a client to access dictionary definitions from a set of natural language dictionary databases. RFC 2229 describes the DICT client/server protocol. dict is a client which can access DICT servers from the command line.

ScrollKeeper is a cataloging system for documentation on open systems. It manages documentation metadata (as specified by the Open Source Metadata Framework (OMF) and provides a simple API to allow help browsers to find, sort, and search the document catalog.

ffproxy is a filtering HTTP proxy server. It is able to filter by host, URL, and header. Custom header entries can be filtered and added. It can even drop its privileges and optionally chroot() to some directory. Logging to syslog() is supported, as is using another auxiliary proxy server. Contacting IPv6 servers is supported and allows transparent IPv6 over IPv4 browsing.

The htdigest utility from Apache is useful for other web servers too-- lighttpd for example can make use of the digests thus created. This package contains just htdigest, renamed as apache-htdigest to avoid conflicts. It means that the htdigest utility is available without installing the entire Apache distribution.
