Free for local software for linux

My Network Catalog is an indexing engine that allows Windows shares (or Samba shares) to be bound together over a local network.

My Network Catalog allows an easy centralized search of all the files available over the network.

Local Lyrics is a python based amaroK-script requires amaroK 1.4!

I wrote simple wrappers for dcop-calls (using the shell-tool dcop), kdialog and amaroKs script system while writing this script. Use them if you want (its all LGPL) See the .tar.bz2s contense and: http://twoday.tuwien.ac.at/pub/stories/22759/

This lyrics-plugin simply scans a selected folder for textfiles with lyrics. This might be usefull when you have a lot of lyrics stored on your harddisc, but they are not available on lyrc.com.ar or a simmilar service.

Installation:

Open the lyrics-filesystem-x.x.amarokscript.tar.bz2 with amaroKs script managers script install option.

Usage:

Start the script with amaroKs script manager.
Select the directory in which the lyrics are stored.
The filenames of the lyrics have to be:

"artist - title.txt"
or
"title.txt"

Now amaroK will search this folder for lyrics, when there are none in its database for the current track.

Old Laptop As Firewall is a single, 1440kb floppy Linux with 16-bit PCMCIA support and PPP for using a Pentium I/II laptop to firewall a dial-up connection.
The floppy is msdos-formatted and uses Syslinux to boot into a 4MB ramdisk with a Minix version 2 filesystem. The system was compiled with uClibc 0.9.28.
Main features:
- 2.4.34 non-modular kernel, compressed with lzma
- uClibc 0.9.28
- busybox 1.4.1
- pcmcia-cs 3.2.8
- pppd 2.4.4b1
- iptables 1.3.7
- dnsmasq 2.35
- 100 kb free on the floppy to add more programs!
Version restrictions:
- OLAF has not been tested with more than one computer behind
- the firewall (I only have two boxes to work with.)
- The supplied chat script probably wont work for many people.
- There currently isnt any support for local timezones.
- The Windows and Mac support is lacking; I dont have
- either OS to work with.
Enhancements:
- The file permissions in /etc/* were changed from 0600 to 0644 on all plain text files except gshadow, shadow, and ppp/pap-secrets.
- The file permissions on /bin/busybox were changed from 0700 to 0755.
- The original permissions were too strict for dnsmasq, which runs as user nobody and couldnt access /etc/hosts.

Tie::FormA is a Perl module that can access a machine readable database file that minics a hardcopy form.

SYNOPSIS

require Tie::FormA;

#####
# Using support methods and file handle with
# the file subroutines such as open(), readline()
# print(), close()
#
tie *FORM_FILEHANDLE, Tie::FormA, @options
$form = tied *FORM_FILEHANDLE;

#####
# Using support methods only, no file subroutines
#
$form = Tie::Form->new(@options);

$encoded_fields = $form->decode_record($record);
@fields = $form->decode_field($encoded_fields);

$encoded_fields = $form->encode_field (@fields);
$record = $form->encode_record($encoded_fields);

$record = $form->get_record();

####
# Subroutine interface
#
$encoded_fields = decode_record($record);
@fields = decode_field($encoded_fields);

$encoded_fields = encode_field (@fields);
$record = encode_record($encoded_fields);
If a subroutine or method will process a list of options, @options, that subroutine will also process an array reference, @options, [@options], or hash reference, %options, {@options}.

The Tie::FormA module provides a text database file suitable for local data such as private mailing lists. The Tie::FormA cannot provide a data warehouse shared by mulitple users.

Local Area Security is a research group focused on information security related subjects. We are most known for L.A.S. Linux. Our live-CD security toolkit.

Local Area Security is a project that was started in 2002 to research information security related topics. During that time there was no real live-CD toolkit focused on information security.

So Jascha, the project founder built one from a stripped down version of Knoppix called Model-K. Both of which were built from Debian Linux.

Up until version 0.4 L.A.S. Linux was command line only. Which made it limited to some of the tools it could contain since many require a GUI. Or at least for many it is preferable to have one. So FluxBox was added as the desktop since it is light weight and very feature filled.

It was during this time that Jascha came up with the idea of keeping the size of L.A.S. as small as possible, which lead to a target maximum size of 180MBs. The size of the original mini-CDs that were available at the time. This forced the selection of tools and features to be weighed heavily since unlike other live-CDs that throw in everything including the kitchen sink. L.A.S. was designed from the ground up to be a tool not a all-inclusive grab bag of applications.

As well as many advances for live-CDs came about, such as to-ram that allows booting a live-CD into the physical RAM of a computer. Which by chance L.A.S. was perfectly cut out for. With as little as 256MB of RAM people could boot L.A.S. and then free up their CD-ROMs for burring etc.

For forensics this was a big plus, along with many other uses. Plus L.A.S. ran very fast in RAM which helped with running Nessus, Nmap, or other tools. When compared to full size (700MB) CDs which would require 1GB of RAM to use the to-ram option, it was really no contest.

Local Data Manager (LDM) is a collection of cooperating programs that select, capture, manage, and distribute arbitrary data products.
The system is designed for event-driven data distribution, and is currently used in the Unidata Internet Data Distribution (IDD) project. The LDM system includes network client and server programs and their shared protocols.
An important characteristic of the LDM is its support for flexible, site-specific configuration.
Enhancements:
- Fixes for timestamp bugs.

contestFS for Amarok was inspired by the work of amarokFS, and is a script to show the contextbrowser in the fullscreen mode.

Same dependencies as amarokFS.

It can also be run by the amarokFS script. Just change the path to /usr/local/bin/contextFS after install.
