Free connections for children software for linux

Net::Connection::Sniffer can gather stats on network connections.

SYNOPSIS

use Net::Connection::Sniffer;
gather($config)
__top

Net::Connection::Sniffer is a perl module to gather connection statistics by listening to ethernet traffic. Traffic is filtered using standard BPF notation as described in the tcpdump documentation and implemented using the standard pcap library to sniff packets on host network interfaces.

phpMysqlConnection provides a PHP class for handling MySQL database connections.
phpMysqlConnection is an interface class to be used with the PHP programming language to help projects connect to a MySQL database server and perform queries.
The methods of this class prevent the programmer from having to memorize all the different steps needed to connect to the database, perform a query, and retrieve results.
Enhancements:
- A function to return XML-formatted data record sets from queries has been added.

Gnome Remote Connection Manager is a gnome application that stores information
about remote connections.
It gives you a GUI program to launch applications like telnet, shh, or rdesktop. It is highly configurable as to what type of applications it launches, so you are not limited to the three listed, for example I never thought of using it for ftp, but it would be easy to setup.
GRCM uses gconf to store information about connections.
Enhancements:
- Added some missing icons.
- Fixed a callback in the Connections Dialog that made the default arguments from the connection appear when selected.

Net::FreeDB2::Connection is a FreeDB/CDDB abstract connection class.

Net::FreeDB2::Connection is an abstract class to represent connections to FreeDB/CDDB servers. After a successfull connection, FreeDB/CDDB queries, reads etc can be made to obtain/provide information from/to FreeDB/CDDB databases.

CONSTRUCTOR

new (OPT_HASH_REF)

Creates a new Net::FreeDB2::Connection object. By default connect () is called to initiate the connection but see option no_connect. See the implementation for complements/restrictions.

Options for OPT_HASH_REF may include:

client_name

Mandatory option to name the connecting client software.

client_version

Mandatory option with the client software version string.

client_host

The hostname of the client. Defaults to &Sys::Hostname::hostname ().

client_user

The user of the client. Defaults to scalar (getpwuid ($>));

freedb_host

The FreeDB/CDDB host. Defaults to freedb.freedb.org.

freedb_port

The port on the FreeDB/CDDB host.

proxy_host

Proxy host.

proxy_port

Port on the proxy host. Defaults to 8080.

proxy_user

Proxy user name to use.

proxy_passwd

Proxy password to use.

no_connect

Do not call connect () during instanciation.

Downloader for X is a tool for downloading files from the Internet via both HTTP and FTP with a powerful but userfriendly interface.
Downloader for X supports reconnecting and resuming on connection timeouts, has a download queue for multiple files, support for simultaneous downloads, and many other features for powerful downloading.
Main features:
- Supporting both FTP and HTTP protocols as well as HTTP and FTP proxy servers. SOCKS5 support is also included! Authentication on the proxy servers is supported too.
- The Program keep the logs of all download sessions that allows advanced user to monitor problems manualy according information from these logs.
- It allows users to manage their downloads in real time. User can pause, continue, move in queue, add new downloads and remove downloads manualy. User also can allow to remove completed or failed downloads automatically by the program.
- Recursive downloading via FTP as well as via HTTP is supported. Powerful Filters-manager allow advanced user to specify files which must to be downloaded and files which must to be skipped. Wildcards are supported for FTP downloads too.
- Ability to download in more than one connection per time. Usualy downloading using number of connections increases speed of downloading up to 300% and even more!
- Supporting of so called `Persistent connections increases speed of downloading due much less amount of `standing connection stages. With this feature D4X uses connections to the servers many times. Persistent connections over HTTP are supported automaticaly but persistent connections over FTP can be turned on by user (Do not send QUIT command option of FTP settings).
- Ability to limit download speed of separate file as well as for the whole program allows modem user browse through the Web and download files at the same time.
- Built-in Scheduller, URL-manager and Automatically adding allow advaced user to simplify managing downloads by various criterias.
- Multiqueued design, ability to run without X interface, ability to manage D4X via command line and many other features will satisfy anybody who find a time to learn this program.
Enhancements:
- bug fixes

Layer-7 Packet Classifier for Linux is a packet classifier for Netfilter that identifies packets based on application layer (OSI layer 7) data. This means that it is able to classify packets as HTTP, FTP, Gnucleus, Kazaa, etc., regardless of ports.
It complements existing matches that classify based on port numbers, packet length, TOS bits, and so on. Combined with Linux QoS, it allows for full layer 7 packet shaping.
Main features:
- Patches for Linux 2.4 and 2.6
- Support for TCP, UDP and ICMP over IPv4
- Uses Netfilters connection tracking of FTP, IRC, etc
- Examines data across multiple packets
- Number of packets examined tunable on the fly through /proc
- Number of bytes examined tunable at module load time
- Distinguishes between new connections (those still being tested) and old unidentified connections
- Gives access to both Netfilter and QoS (rate limiting) features
- With the Netfilter "helper" match, you can distinguish between parent and child connections (e.g. ftp command/data)

Test::MultiFork is a test suite that has support for multi-process programs.

SYNOPSIS

use Test::MultiFork;

($name, $letter, $number) = procname([new name])
lockcommon()
@oldvalues = getcommon()
setcommon(@newvalues)
unlockcommon()

use Test::MultiFork qw(groupwait setgroup dofork stderr bail_on_bad_plan)

groupwait([$tag])
$oldgroup = setgroup([$newgroup])
dofork(fork_specification)

This test module is to support creating test suites for programs and modules that run as multiple processes and do mostly blocking I/O.

Test::MultiFork handles the forking so that it can set up each child to coordinate the output. The output from each child fork is redirected to the parent. Each fork produces normal test output -- possibly using normal test modules like Test::Simple. The output is collected and rewritten by the parent process.

Each child fork has a letter and number designation. The forks are created by dofork(). Dofork takes a specifiction on the form: ([a-z](d*))+. That is to say, one or more lower-case letters, each optionally followd by a number. The number says how many children to fork for that letter (default one). The specifier ab2c3 means have one a child (numbered 1); two b children (numbered 1, 2); and three c children (numbered 1, 2, 3).

To aid in writing tests, Test::MultiFork will pass data between the child processes. The data is test-writer defined.
