Beltane is a web-based central management console for the Samhain file integrity / intrusion detection system. Beltane project enables the administrator to browse client messages, acknowledge them, and update centrally stored file signature databases.
Beltane requires a Samhain (version 1.6.0 or higher) client/server installation, with file signature databases stored on the central server, and logging to a SQL database enabled.
In a client/server installation of Samhain, you have individual hosts monitored by Samhain clients, and a central log server (called yule) where also the file signature databases are kept. Beltane enhances this setup by providing an interface to browse client messages, acknowledge them, and modify the file signature database for a client according to the file changes reported by that client.
As the Samhain daemon keeps a memory of file changes, the file signature database need only be up to date when the daemon restarts and downloads the database from the central server. Beltane allows you to use the information logged by the client in order to update the signature database.
Details
Beltane is a PHP4 (also works with PHP5) application, with some additional components written in C. PHP4 (or PHP5) may be compiled as Apache module or as CGI interpreter (Beltane is tested with Linux, Apache 1.3/2.0, PHP 4.3.4/5.0.3 used as CGI interpreter, suexec, no SSL, MySQL and PostgreSQL databases).
Beltane 2 can also be used with an Oracle database.
On the client side, Beltane requires a Javascript capable browser. Cookies must be enabled. We recommend Mozilla/Firefox, as it is rumoured to be the most standard-conforming browser, but most inferior browsers may work as well.
Documentation is provided as SGML and HTML files within the tarball. You are adviced to read the documentation before attempting to install Beltane.
Main features:
- Major performance and scalability improvements for reduced memory consumption, faster baseline database updates, and faster reload of the client panel

- Client Status Display (running/dead/unknown)
- Bulk Update from user-defined criteria like: the hostname, a list of files (with or without checksums), or a time window
- On-the-fly Sorting of the message list
- Message Filtering with POSIX regular expressions
- GnuPG Signing of client file signature databases after an update
- Search function for the database.
- Editing of client configurations
- Client Configuration Reload can be triggered
- Multiple Users with logging of login/logouts

Enhancements:
- Multiple administrator accounts are possible, per-user configurability has been improved, and a strict locking policy has been implemented to avoid race conditions.

Ricebridge CSV Manager project allows you to read and write CSV files from within your Java application. This component covers all sorts of boundary cases and bad data that youd rather not think about.
Main features:
- Any CSV Format
Read and write Excel, UNIX and arbitrary CSV formats. Easily define the separation, quoting, escape and whitespace characters. We can handle multi-line data and missing fields. We provide detailed error reporting when badly formatted data is encountered.
- Access Data Directly
From ArrayLists to TableModels, from ResultSets to plain old Java arrays, we provide the data the way you want it. You can even create your own data models using callback interfaces.
- Great Documentation
Our documentation is something were really proud of. We cover everything you need to know, fully and comprehensively, from the basics to advanced usage.
- Easy to Use
Weve put lots of thought into making our components usable. Our interfaces and naming conventions are consistent, coherent and sensible. We take the time to find the least surprising way to do something.
- Fast and Scalable
Weve defined a proper grammar for CSV files to parse them cleanly and efficiently, and weve verified that our parser has linear performance for any file size.
- Learn from Open Source
Weve taken selected sections of the CSV Manager source code and released them under a BSD-style license. This means that you can get see in detail how to use our entire API.
Version restrictions:
- 30-day trial
Enhancements:
- Comments within lines were enabled by default, causing unexpected data loss.
- Comments are now only valid at the start of a line, unless CsvSpec.setCommentWithinLine is true.
