Free fingers software for linux

XFinger is the X window version of the finger command for linux and other Unix-like systems. The application provides refresh: in this way you can keep users monitored.

Compiling:

Sorry: no Makefile yet.

First of all you need to install the FLTK library from www.fltk.org, then you can compile XFinger. I tested it using GNU C++ compiler (g++/egcs) under RedHat Linux version 5.2 and 6.1. You can find examples of compilation commands in the files named COMPILE and STATIC-COMPILE.

After this, try the program, simply typing "./xfinger". If you are not used to compile programs, you can run the precompiled binary included in the distributed file. It should work on any Linux system with 2.x.x kernel (static ELF).

Maybe you can also recompile it on other Unix-like systems.

zkfingerd is a relatively simple finger server designed to give the sysadmin complete control over what it looks like and what it does. Variable substitution allows you to make the output look however you want it to look. Script execution allows you to define targets which will execute programs, as well as enabling you to allow system users to write their own program to be executed when they are fingered. Complete configurability -- zkfingerd aims to give you completely control over what it does and when. Basic HTTP support, including a workaround that detects the differences between browsers that send the "//" in a finger URL as part of the query and those that dont. Public file areas allow users to make the contents of directories available to anyone who asks wants.
Obtain source from http://sourceforge.net/projects/zkfingerd or finger:
cuervo/zkfingerd/zkfingerd-latest.tar.gz.Z@digits.zerokarma.sleepers.net
Unpack (tar xvfz zkfingerd*.tar.gz)
Change to the zkfingerd source directory
Compile and install zkfingerd by running make install
Change to the /etc/finger directory and edit the config file, templates, and banner

Cuiterm is a CUI (Composite User Interface) terminal.
CUI (Composite User Interface) is a compound type of user interface which incorporates the features of the GUI (Graphical User Interface) and the CLI (Command Line Interface) by realizing both interface in one area at the same time.
It is absolutely substantial that the CUI contains GUI elements and control language in the same area of the screen at the same time, so the incorporation is complete. CUI is not an optional, alternatively selectable combination of the two communication method but a truly new approach.
An other relevant feature of the CUI method is that it uses generated commands. When the user activated some GUI part of the user interface an automatically generated command appears to complete the task so the user can observ how the CLI part of the user interface can be used.
The cuiterm is a pilot application for the CUI methodology made to demonstrate the power of the composite user interfaces. As terminals are usually used with some shell to start simple UNIX utility programs, the Cui library can be considered as a composite user interface for the shell and some UNIX utilities. The following screenshot shows the starting screen of the cuiterm.
How to use it?
To test the composite user interface first you have to download the cuiterm and and install it. After the installation is complete the program can be started with the cuiterm command.
When the terminal emulator started it can be used the usual way by typing commands into it. Some programs and some complex commands are interpreted by the terminal and colorized (see the list below). For these commands the screen should have active areas usable with the left mouse button by double clicking on them. The output of some programs have floating menus with context sensitive functions. The menus can be accessed by the right mouse button. Some parts of the screen can be used to fire up a text entry field by holding down the left mouse button.
The following list contains some interpreted and processed commands that are worth trying.
ls -l and some variants of it
df
who
w
ps aux
stat
finger
cat /etc/fstab
Enhancements:
- This version contains new features, including an automatic GUI generator which creates dialog boxes from manual pages, a working progress bar, enhanced size bars, and some new command parsers.
- The drag and drop, the speed of the terminal, and the existing parsers were also enhanced.

The tcp_wrappers package allows you to monitor and filter incoming requests for the SYSTAT, FINGER, FTP, TELNET, RLOGIN, RSH, EXEC, TFTP, TALK, and other network services. It provides tiny daemon wrapper programs that can be installed without any changes to existing software or to existing configuration files. The wrappers report the name of the client host and of the requested service. The wrappers do not exchange information with the client or server applications, so it does not impose no overhead on the actual conversation between the client and server applications.
It supports both 4.3BSD-style sockets and System V.4-style TLI. Praise yourself lucky if you dont know what that means.
The package provides tiny daemon wrapper programs that can be installed without any changes to existing software or to existing configuration files. The wrappers report the name of the client host and of the requested service; the wrappers do not exchange information with the client or server applications, and impose no overhead on the actual
conversation between the client and server applications.
Optional features are: access control to restrict what systems can connect to what network daemons; client user name lookups with the RFC 931 etc. protocol; additional protection against hosts that pretend to have someone elses host name; additional protection against hosts that pretend to have someone elses host address.
The programs are very portable. Build procedures are provided for many common (and not so common) environments, and guidelines are provided in case your environment is not among them.
Requirements are that network daemons are spawned by a super server such as the inetd; a 4.3BSD-style socket programming interface and/or System V.4-style TLI programming interface; and the availability of a syslog(3) library and of a syslogd(8) daemon. The wrappers should run without modification on any system that satisfies these requirements. Workarounds have been implemented for several common bugs in systems software.
What to do if this is your first encounter with the wrapper programs: 1) read the tutorial sections for an introduction to the relevant concepts and terminology; 2) glance over the security feature sections in this document; 3) follow the installation instructions (easy or
advanced). I recommend that you first use the default security feature settings. Run the wrappers for a few days to become familiar with their logs, before doing anything drastic such as cutting off access or installing booby traps.
Enhancements:
- Improved the anti source-routing protection. The code in version 7.5 was not as strong as it could be, because I tried to be compatible with Linux. That was a mistake. Sorry for the inconvenience.
-
- The program no longer terminates case of a source-routed connection, making the IP-spoofing code more usable for long-running daemons.
-
- When syslogging DNS hostname problems, always stop after a limited number of characters.

The NIST Implementation of the Ad-Hoc On Demand Distance Vector protocol is a kernel-level driver for Linux . AODV is a routing protocol for ad hoc networks designed with mobile wireless devices in mind. For a quick overview on AODVs basics, check out our Quick Guide to AODV page. If you are interested in running a simulation of AODV, NIST has developed a simulation in OPNET.
Kernel AODV is a loadable kernel module for Linux. It implements AODV routing between computers equipped with WLAN interfaces.

Enhancements:
- Corrected LINK_LIMIT #ifdefs (Fix from Peter Barron)
- aodv_neigh.c
- hello.c
- module.c
- Add Packet Queuing back in (Fix from Peter Barron)
- Send queued messages when recieving a route, aodv_route.c
- Drop packet from queue if RREQ fails, rreq.c
- Added packet_queue.c back in, packet_queue.c
- Added init and cleanup of packet_queue, module.c
- Added additional check to packet_out.c to determine if packet is going to external subnet on a gateway.
- Shouldnt be neccesary since a route should be created for the external destination anyhow. Have to look into this. (Fix from Peter Barron)
- Removed annoying message printed when signal strength can not be read. Instead only prints when can not be set. signal.c
- Fixed the undefined symbol STRCHR problem for real this time. The problem is doing strstr() with a singlecharecter results in it being converted to strchr(), but for some reason it is not properly imported. The solution it to simply use stchr() instead. module.c
- Changed it so that find_aodv_route() will return valid routes that have expired. When it didnt return expired routes two routes would sometimes be created. Also, now kernel routes are only removed when an expired route is removed. find_aodv_route() will also invalidate expired valid routes.
- Had some trouble with duplicate kernel routes. Now we are always deleting before inserting a new route. Should fix it, fingers are crossed.
- Changed delete_neighbor() so that we send out an RERR even if the route is no longer valid. Also change gen_rerr() so that is will send out a RERR even if the route is not valid. It has to be better to send out a few extra rather than not enough. Just cause you have timed a route out doesnt mean others have.
- Compared the Metrics wrong in update_route() if the seq numbers were equal.
