Slimserver Control is a Amarok script that can control your Slimserver (play/stop) from Amarok.

Usage:

Run the script. On first run, it will ask for the Slimserver IP address, port and the Squeezebox MAC address. If in doubt for the answers, browse to your Slimserver home page, then, while playing a song, move your mouse over the "Play" button. You should see in the status bar of your browser a URL similar to this one:

http://localhost:9000/status_header.html?p0=play&player=00%3A04%3A20%3A06%3A9c%3Aaa

In this example:

Slimserver IP adddress = localhost

Slimserver port = 9000

Squeezebox MAC address = 00%3A04%3A20%3A06%3A9c%3Aaa

VolumeControl is a audio mixer for GNU/Linux.
Volume Control project requires OSS or ALSA with OSS /dev/mixer compatibility (for now) from the Linux kernel.
The GTK interface provides ease of use in adjusting volume levels.
Features to be added before version 1.0:
- add full ALSA support
- add volume themes
- additional testing
Enhancements:
- Command line arguments have been added.
- The GUI can be bypassed by using command line arguments.
- This makes volumecontrol useful for scripts, or for users who prefer adjusting levels without a GUI.

Service Control is a basically it allows you to easily control services. Very very simple.

Currently only for Gentoos service directories, so if you use another distrobution, youll have to edit the initial combo variable to suit your needs.

NEEDS TO BE RUN AS ROOT!

Installation:

The simplest way to compile this package is:

1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute `configure itself.

Running `configure takes a while. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.

2. Type `make to compile the package.

3. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.

4. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean.

Azureus Speed Control is a project that enables automatic configuration of your upload limit. This addresses the problem of implicit additional upload when Azureus downloads with high speed, which can lead to connection choking. This is a problem specially for users with low upload bandwidth like German ADSL users.

If your download rate increases, the upload limit will be reduced by a value that can be customized. If the download rate decreases, the upload limit will increase again.

Domain Technologie Control (DTC) is a GPL control panel for hosting. Using a web GUI for admin and accounting all hosting services, DTC can delegate the task of creating subdomains, email, and FTP accounts to users for the domain names they own.
DTC manages a MySQL database containing all the hosting information. It has support for many programs (bind 8 and 9 and compatibles, MySQL, Apache 1.3, php4, qmail, postfix 2, courier, dovecot, proftpd, webalizer, mod-log-sql, etc.) through config files and/or MySQL plugins (when the service is non-critical).
Domain Technologie Control project can also generate backup scripts, calculation scripts, and config files using a single system UID/GID and monitor all traffic accounting per user and per service. Since version 0.12, DTC is fully skinable and translated in 8 language (Chinese, English, Spanish, French, Deuch, German, Italian and Russian).
DTC has been tested and works well with FreeBSD, Debian stable testing and unstable and now handles SBOX cgi-wrapper to provide chroot environment to users binaries. There is a RPM for DTC that has been done under RedHat 7, but its not well tested (I need feedback on this one as I dont use RPM based distributions myself).
Enhancements:
- This version adds support for Xen VPS connecting to dtc-xen (SOAP server) and the cyrus.
- It includes support tickets, renewal with email reminders, a new, easier to understand layout, (unfinished) import/export functions, domain parking (for DNS, Apache, and mail), daily stats (instead of each month), and some more package installers (Joomla, Vtiger, WANewsletter, and drupal).

Ops Control Panel is a frontend for MRTG.

Unlike many other frontends, it does not have any requirements beyond those of MRTG, although it can support PHP-enabled Web servers instead of just running as a Perl CGI script.

Ops Control Panel project provides overviews of MRTG-based monitoring pages in a variety of formats.

Teacher Control Panel allows a teacher to monitor, lock, and operate student computers and broadcast the teachers screen to the students.
Teacher Control Panel can work with a mix of Windows and Linux workstations. The screens are captured using VNC, and the teachers screen is broadcast using multicast.
Main features:
- Supervise the activity of the students (view student screens)
- Lock student screens
- Broadcast the teacher screen to students (all students or a subset) fullscreen or in a window (this feature uses multicast therefore can scale to many computer very well)
- Control remotely a student computer
- Run a script for every student computers
- Compatible with any Java compatible OS (default configuration is for Linux)

Rule Set Based Access Control (RSBAC) is a Free Software security extension for current Linux kernels. Rule Set Based Access Control is based on the Generalized Framework for Access Control (GFAC) by Abrams and LaPadula and provides a flexible system of access control based on several modules.
All security relevant system calls are extended by security enforcement code. This code calls the central decision component, which in turn calls all active decision modules and generates a combined decision. This decision is then enforced by the system call extensions.
Main features:
- Free Open Source (GPL) Linux kernel security solution
- Independent of governments and big companies
- Several well-known and new security models, like MAC, ACL and RC
- On-access virus scanning with the Dazuko interface
- Detailed control over individual user and program network accesses
- Fully access controlled kernel level user management
- Any combination of security models possible
- Easily extensible: write your own model for runtime registration
- Support for latest kernels and stable for production use
Enhancements:
- This release relates to kernel 2.4.34.5 and 2.6.22.1.
- There are important fixes with some compilation errors and an important bug with User Management password hashing, introduced with the newer 2.6 kernel crypto API.
- Some security has been added with safety measures against null pointers.
