Unicode Utilities 2.25
Unicode Utilities project are a set of programs for manipulating and analyzing Unicode text. more>>
Unicode Utilities project are a set of programs for manipulating and analyzing Unicode text. uniname defaults to printing the character offset of each character, its byte offset, its hex code value, its encoding, the glyph itself, and its name. Command line options allow undesired information to be suppressed and the Unicode range to be added.
unidesc reports the character ranges to which different portions of the text belong. unihist generates a histogram of the characters in its input. ExplicateUTF8 is intended for debugging or for learning about Unicode. It determines and explains the validity of a sequence of bytes as a UTF-8 encoding. unirev reverses UTF-8 strings.
Enhancements:
- Adds to unidesc the option -r which causes it to list the ranges detected after reading all input rather than listing them as they are encountered, and adds to uniname the option -B which causes it to ignore characters within the Basic Multilingual Plane.

WAVE Utilities 1.18
WAVE Utilities package contains three programs for dealing with WAVE format audio files. more>>
WAVE Utilities package contains three programs for dealing with WAVE format audio files.
SimplifyWave
The standard permits WAVE format audio files to contain a variety of chunks, such as playlists, cue lists, and padding. A fair amount of software, however, is unable to parse such complex files. This program converts complex WAVE files into the simplest standard-conforming format by stripping out everything other than the obligatory format chunk and the first data chunk. Messages are printed indicating what chunks have been removed.
RepairWave
Some software generates non-conformant files that purport to be WAVE files. They contain a WAVE header but lack the obligatory data chunk id and size information. The audio data immediately follows the header. This program inserts the missing data chunk id and size information and updates the WAVE chunk size information in the header to reflect this.
InfoWave
Extracts information from a RIFF/WAV or RIFX/WAV file and reports on the contents of the file. It shows the size, type, and location of each chunk and gives the encoding of the audio data, its sampling rate, resolution, number of channels and other information. Typical output looks like this:
0: RIFF identifier.
4: chunk size = 38,642 bytes.
8: WAV identifier.
12: format chunk identifier
16: format chunk size = 18 bytes.
20: data format: PCM.
22: one channel (mono).
24: Sampling Rate = 11,025 samples per second.
28: Average Data Rate = 11,025 bytes per second.
32: Bytes_Per_Sample value of 1 indicates 8-bit mono
34: Bits_Per_Sample = 8.
36: chunk id
40: chunk length
44: chunk of type fact (standard) length 4 bytes
48: chunk id
52: chunk length
56: chunk of type data (standard) length 38,591 bytes
amounting to 0 minutes and 3.5 seconds
These programs were originally called SimplifyWav, wavrepair, and wavinfo.
Enhancements:
- The programs have been adapted to run correctly on 64-bit architectures as well as 32-bit architectures.
- They should now compile on systems whose printf does not support thousands separators.

Linux Bridge Utilities 1.1
Linux Bridge Utilities is a bridge is a way to connect two Ethernet segments together in a protocol independent way. more>>
Linux Bridge Utilities is a bridge is a way to connect two Ethernet segments together in a protocol independent way. Packets are forwarded based on Ethernet address, rather than IP address (like a router). Since forwarding is done at Layer 2, all protocols can go transparently through a bridge.
The Linux bridge code implements a subset of the ANSI/IEEE 802.1d standard. [1]. The original Linux bridging was first done in Linux 2.2, then rewritten by Lennert Buytenhek. The code for bridging has been integrated into 2.4 and 2.6 kernel series.
Manual Configuration
Network cards
Before you start make sure both network cards are set up and working properly. Dont set the IP address, and dont let the startup scripts run DHCP on the ethernet interfaces either. The IP address needs to be set after the bridge has been configured.
The command ifconfig should show both network cards, and they should have be DOWN.
Module loading
In most cases, the bridge code is built as a module. If the module is configured and installed correctly, it will get automatically loaded on the first brctl command.
If your bridge-utilities have been correctly built and your kernel and bridge-module are OK, then issuing a brctl should show a small command synopsis.

lsd mount utilities project assist in setting up (creating) and mounting encrypted loopback file systems in Linux 2.4 and 2.6.
They also enable users (not just root) to mount encrypted file systems if appropriate entries have been added to /etc/fstab.
Enhancements:
- The installation footprint has been reduced by a factor of around 2.3.
- Formerly separate programs have been gathered into a single one.
- The name under which the program is installed was changed.
- The tool verbosity was greatly reduced (since standard error is now suppressed for most of the probing with external tools).
- To get a partial trace of the things happening internally (e.g. which external programs are invoked) you can now set the environment variable lsd_lama_trace=verbose.

mkCDrec Utilities 0.7.9
mkCDrec Utilities is a rescue and recovery utilities to use with mkCdrec. more>>
The mkCDrec utilities are optional for mkCDrec itself, but are an added value for rescue and recovery purposes.
The utilities are staticly compiled and include parted, memtest, partimage, gpart, and recover. Memtest86 is also available for memory testing.
To improve the added value of your recovery/rescue CD-ROM. You will notice that links from mkCDrec CD-ROM are foreseen to the /cdrom/utilities part of the CD-ROM and that man pages of these tools are already available within mkCDrec main toolset.
Without installing the utilities you cannot use them (obvious), but it will not break any other functionality of the mkCDrec tools. Therefore, a full restore remains possible (and disk cloning too), but you will not be able to resize a partition afterwards to name something.
Most of these utilities were compiled as static binaries, therefore, you can use those tools seperately too. If you know any tool which could useful to be included, please let me know... Since mkCDrec_utils_v0.5.7 you will notice that mkCDrec will use isolinux to boot from the CD-ROM instead of using syslinux floppy boot emulation.
But, this will only work if you use mkCDrec_v0.5.7 (or higher) as isolinux was first introduced in v0.5.7.
Parted
The famous Partition Editor of GNU software. The User Manual of parted is already part of mkCDrec.
Memtest
An excellent memory testing tool.
Partition Image
A tool to make/restore partition of msdos/vfat/ext2/reiserfs file systems. The primary purpose to include this tool is to allow a restore of old partition images made by this tool.
Gpart
Guess partition does what it implies. It can even recover destroyed partition tables, and therefore, maybe preventing a full restore. Useful in case if you do not make a mkcdrec on a regular basis.
Recover
An excellent tool to edit an EXT2 file system to recover lost files.
e2salvage
e2salvage is a utility which tries to recover a data from damaged ext2 partition. It may be used when e2fsck does not recover the broken ext2 filesystem. Before trying this tool read the man page (man e2salvage).
ext2resize
ext2resize, ext2prepare and ext2online are useful tools. ext2resize can increase (or decrease) the size of an unmounted ext2 filesystem. Be aware for ext2online one need a kernel patch (not likely installed). By the way, ext2resize does work too on an Ext3 filesystem! Be aware, one needs to apply S. Tweedies kernel patch (ext3) and an updated ext2 filesystem e2fprogs-1.20 or higher (which are ext3 aware). Last 2 requirements are of course only needed in case if you want to work with ext3 filesystems.
memtest86
Memtest86 is thorough, stand alone memory test for x86 architecture computers. BIOS based memory tests are only a quick check and often miss many of the failures that are detected by Memtest86.
chntpw
The offline NT password editor (chntpw) is a little program wich enables you to view and change passwords in a Windows NT SAM user database. For example,
Installation
# cd mkcdrec; tar zxvf mkCDrec_v0.7.9_utils.tar.gz

File Splitter - Split large text/html files into smaller files. I find it
much faster and more accurate than cut and paste.
You embed commands in the big file telling it which pieces
of it are to go where, then let Splitter do the work. It is
much faster and more accurate than trying to select huge
blocks of text in an editor. You dont accidentally lose or
duplicate text. Keeping files small makes the site more
responsive.
In the following pretend that [...] are actually lessthan...greater than.
You embed multiple [split tags in the file to be split of
the form:
[split charlie.html]
...
stuff that will end up in the charlie.html file.
...
[/split]
The text between the [split xxx] and [/split] tags is split
off into that named file and the text is removed from the
original file along with the tags.
1. Filenames may be absolute or relative, with no quotes or spaces.
2. Tags may be nested, but they must balance (equal number
of [split xxx] and [/split]).
3. Tags are case-insensitive, i.e. may be lower or upper case.
4. Multiple [split xxx] tags may be directed to the same
file, where they will be appended.
5. If the files mentioned in the split tags already exist,
they will be overwritten.
6. Anything not inside [split xxx].. [/split] is retained in
the original file. Everything else is removed.
The file being split must be small enough to fit in RAM.
Java array addressing limits the file to 2GB, though other
considerations mean in practice the largest file you can
handle will be smaller still.
To install, Extract the zip download with Winzip, available from
http://www.winzip.com (or similar unzip utility) into any
directory you please, often C:\ -- ticking off the (user
folder names) option. To run as an application, type:
java -jar C:\com\mindprod\splitter\splitter.jar x.html
adjusting as necessary to account for where the jar file is.

Linux NFS Utilities 1.1.0
Linux NFS Utilities is NFS utilities for Linux NFS clients and servers. more>>
Linux NFS Utilities are NFS utilities for Linux NFS clients and servers.
Main features:
- NFS Versions 2, 3, and 4 are supported on 2.6 and later kernels.
- NFS over UDP and TCP on IPv4 are supported on the latest 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.
- Linux NFS clients and servers have been tested against many non-Linux implementations.
- Since version 1.0.1 of the NFS utilities tarball has changed the server export default to "sync", then, if no behavior is specified in the export list (thus assuming the default behavior), a warning will be generated at export time.
- If you plan to deploy NFS extensively, consider subscribing to one of these mailing lists: NFS Mailing List, or the AutoFS Mailing List. Before reporting problems, you should search for similar issues in the searchable mail archive. Another searchable archive for NFS, supported by Google, is here. The searchable mail archive for AutoFS is here.
- A useful set of generic NFS references includes the following:
- - "NFS Illustrated," by Brent Callaghan; Addison-Wesley, 2000.
- - "Managing NFS and NIS, 2nd edition," by Hal Stern, Mike Eisler, Ricardo Labiaga; OReilly, 2001.
- - "Linux NFS and Automounter Administration," by Erez Zadok; Sybex, 2001.
- - "Using the Linux NFS Client with Network Appliance Filers," by Charles Lever; Netapp TR-3183, 2004.
- - "Mike Eislers NFS blog."
- - "Eric Kustarzs blog."
- - "NFS version 4 home page."
- - Finally, the "linux.org online library" has many references.
Quick setup client guide
1. Acquire and install a recent distribution of Linux.
2. Set up your /etc/exports file (man exports for details).
3. Consult your distributions documentation to determine which /etc/init.d start-up script is used to start your server. Start NFS services by invoking this script as root, using the "start" parameter. Consider adding this script to the list of scripts that are automatically run at system start-up. (Red Hat uses the chkconfig command for this purpose).
4. Read the NFS How-To for advice on tuning and securing your server.
Quick Client Setup Guide
1. Acquire and install a recent distribution of Linux. To enable NLM lock recovery, ensure your clients host name, as returned by uname -n, matches the host name returned by DNS.
2. The NLM protocol is handled by an in-kernel service in modern kernels, but the user-level rpc.statd program must be running to enable NLM lock recovery. Consult your distributions documentation to determine which /etc/init.d start-up script is used to start it. Start the NSM daemon by invoking this script as root, using the "start" parameter. Consider adding this script to the list of scripts that are automatically run at system start-up. (Red Hat uses the chkconfig command for this purpose).
3. Create the directories on your client where you will mount the NFS shares.
4. Add entries in /etc/fstab corresponding to your mount points (man nfs for details).
5. Use mount -a -t nfs to mount the NFS shares.
6. During system boot-up, most distributions automatically mount NFS shares that are listed in /etc/fstab. If yours doesnt, check your distributions documentation for instructions on how to configure your client to do this.
Enhancements:
- The "mount.nfs" command was added, since the nfs mount functionality is being migrated from util-linux to nfs-utils.
- Substantial changes to were made statd. Various pieces of old code were removed.

<<lessFile::Util provides a comprehensive toolbox of utilities to automate all kinds of common tasks on file / directories. Its purpose is to do so in the most portable manner possible so that users of this module wont have to worry about whether their programs will work on other OSes and machines.
SYNOPSIS
use File::Util;
my($f) = File::Util->new();
my($content) = $f->load_file(foo.txt);
$content =~ s/this/that/g;
$f->write_file(
file => bar.txt,
content => $content,
bitmask => 0644
);
$f->write_file(
file => file.bin, content => $binary_content, --binmode
);
my(@lines) = $f->load_file(randomquote.txt, --as-lines);
my($line) = int(rand(scalar @lines));
print $lines[$line];

Nomad II Driver/Utilities 0.8
Nomad II supports the Creative Nomad II, IIc and II MG under Linux running USB for file transfers and other operations. more>>
Nomad II supports the Creative Nomad II, IIc and II MG under Linux running USB for file transfers and other operations.
By default, the ownership of the newly created device file for the Nomad II is owned by root, without group/other read+write permissions.
make nomadii setuid root; on startup, nomadii
detects it is running in this mode and changes the owner of the device file to the original user, and then immediately drops back to the user ID of the original user (in order to minimize the possibility of security issues). This can be made with a number of techniques:
use the devuid, devgid or devmode mount options for usbdevfs, either in your /etc/fstab file or located where the mount call for usbdevfs is made (/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit on RedHat 7.x); for example use devmode=0666 to open full access to all USB devices (with the attendant insecureness this creates). In a multi-user machine, setting up a group for USB would be the more secure option using this method.
locate and install the usb_perms daemon
use the hotplug package; this subsystem has good support for USB devices with user-level drivers such as this one with its usb.usermap launch method. The module launched by hotplug can be used to set ownerships or permissions on the device file as soon as the Nomad II is connected, and then even launch an xterm running a nomadii session. This is the most delicate of these methods to set up - sample instructions are given in the HOTPLUG file that comes with the source distribution.
Enhancements:
- Rename of utility to nomadii
- Availablility of RPM
- Full support of the Nomad II, IIc and II MG with latest firmware
- Autocorrection of bad data when getting files from the Nomad
- Much improved error detection and reporting
- Split of code into text front end and library
- Better name handling and progress reporting
- Updated support for nomadii-driver
- Better USB device permission options
- Added send/get methods
- Added support for multiple send, get and delete
- Hotplug documentation and scripts
- Many major and minor bug fixes
