Free infrared remote software for linux

Infrared-HOWTO explains how to use the software provided by the Linux/IrDA project.

The Infrared-HOWTO (formerly known as the IR-HOWTO) is an introduction to Linux and infrared devices and how to use the software provided by the Linux/IrDA project.

This package uses IrDA(TM) compliant standards.

Remote Control (RC) via infrared is not the aim of the project, though this topic is partly treated in the HOWTO.

File::Remote is a Perl module to read/write/edit remote files transparently.

SYNOPSIS

#
# Two ways to use File::Remote
#
# First, the function-based style. Here, we can use the
# special :replace tag to overload Perl builtins!
#
use File::Remote qw(:replace); # special :replace tag

# read from a remote file
open(REMOTE, "host:/remote/file") or die $!;
print while (< REMOTE >);
close(REMOTE);

# writing a local file still works!
open(LOCAL, ">>/local/file");
print LOCAL "This is a new line.n";
close(LOCAL);

mkdir("host:/remote/dir", 0755);
unlink("host:/remote/file");
unlink("/local/file"); # still works too!
symlink("host:/remote/src", "host:/remote/dest");

chown("root", "other", "host:/remote/dir/file");
chmod(0600, "host:/remote/dir/file");

#
# Next, the object-oriented style, if you dont want to
# mess with the builtins.
#
use File::Remote;
my $remote = new File::Remote;

# Standard filehandles
$remote->open(FILE, ">>host:/remote/file") or die $!;
print FILE "Heres a line thats added.n";
$remote->close(FILE);

# Create a new file and change its permissions
$remote->mkdir("host:/remote/dir");
$remote->touch("host:/remote/dir/file");

# Move files around
$remote->copy("/local/file", "host:/remote/file") or warn $!;
$remote->move("host:/remote/file", "/local/file");

# Read and write whole files
my @file = $remote->readfile("host:/remote/file");
$remote->writefile("/local/file", @file);

# Backup a file with a suffix
$remote->backup("host:/remote/oldfile", "save");

# Use secure connection methods
my $secure = new File::Remote (rsh => "/usr/local/bin/ssh",
rcp => "/usr/local/bin/scp");
$secure->unlink("/local/file");
$secure->rmdir("host:/remote/dir");

This module takes care of dealing with files regardless of whether theyre local or remote. It allows you to create and edit files without having to worry about their physical location on the network. If a file passed into a function is of the form host:/path/to/file, then File::Remote uses rsh/rcp (or ssh/scp, depending on how you configure it) to edit the file remotely. Otherwise, it assumes the file is local and passes calls directly through to Perls core functions.

The nice thing about this module is that you can use it for all your file calls, since it handles both remote and local files transparently. This means you dont have to put a whole bunch of checks for remote files in your code. Plus, if you use the function-oriented interface along with the :replace tag, you can actually redefine the Perl builtin file functions. This means that your existing Perl scripts can automatically handle remote files with no re-engineering(!).

AVIRA Webmin Remote Panel is designed to make the maintenance of AVIRA products easier and less time consuming.
This product addresses mainly the users of AVIRA server products and especially the system administrators who must keep track of various services on production servers.
Complex solutions based on multiple AVIRA products for Unix are now easy to configure and maintain with AVIRA Webmin Remote Panel. It is smoothly integrated as a module of the Webmin configuration tool, intended to meet the needs of system administrators.
This is a separate application that was developed as a Webmin module, being a handy graphical tool and a time saver for companies dealing with multiple AVIRA products. Via a straightforward graphical interface, AVIRA Webmin Remote Panel helps managing configuration files and eases the maintenance process of AVIRA solutions.
Placed between the configuration files and the system administrator, this module helps managing the following AVIRA products:
- AVIRA Desktop for Unix
- AVIRA for Unix Server
- AVIRA MailGate
- AVIRA for Sendmail-Milter
- AVIRA WebGate
AVIRA Webmin Remote Panel highlights a simple management interface, designed to configure and smoothly control AVIRA products installed on a network. This application helps you stay informed about the status of your currently running AVIRA solutions, displaying the messages generated by these applications in the system logs.
AVIRA Webmin Remote Panel also manages the engine settings, helping to keep track of administration alerts, licenses and other related aspects.
Main features:
- Configuration of AVIRA Desktop for Unix;
- Configuration of AVIRA for Unix Server;
- Configuration of AVIRA MailGate;
- Configuration of AVIRA Sendmail-Milter;
- Configuration of AVIRA WebGate;
- Simple interface for controlling installed AVIRA products on your system;

Passwordless remote logins script can be used to:

1: Create 1024 bit passwordless dsa keys.
2: Send key to remote server via scp.
3: Create remote .ssh directory and move key to authorized_keys file.

This will allow you to login to remote server via ssh or run automated rsync backups. You need openssh, bash and expect installed for this to work. Optionally you can create an executeButton with the following format for a one click remote server login.

The format: konsole -e ssh -i /your/path/toyour-key remoteusername"@"remotehost_or_ip

RitmarkFS is an open source filesystem storage engine for MySQL server. Using this engine you can work with filesystem on the server using SQL queries. RitmarkFS allows you to access common file attributes such as name, extension, path, size. RitmarkFS is also possible to access raw file contents.

RemoteBuddy project allows people to help their friends fix their computer issues by remote access.

RemoteBuddy is easy to use and works with almost any firewall configuration.

Just follow the simple steps to below to get started.

Remote Nmap (Rnmap) package contains both client and server programs. Actual idea for this sofware is that various clients can connect to one centralized Rnmap server and do their portscannings. Server does user authentication and uses excellent Nmap scanner to do actual scanning. Rnmap is written entirely in Python and is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Version 0.10 of server is tested mainly on Linux, NetBSD and OpenBSD. Generally it should run on any *nix platform as long Nmap and Python are available for them. Console client is known to work with same platforms as server. Gui client will run on any python (with threads) supported platform.

DVB Remote Key Editor project was made in order to have an easy way of modifying the keymaps of DVB-T remotes which are usually hardcoded in the corresponding kernel-modules.

Currently this works for the following models:

Haupauge Win-TV Nova-T USB2 dvb-usb-nova-t-usb2.ko 45
Cinergy T2 cinergyT2.ko 37
AVerMedia AverTV DVB-T dvb-usb-a800.ko 34
Generic dib-usb Driver dvb-usb-dibusb-common.ko 63
WideView/Yakumo/Hama/Typhoon/Yuan DVB-T USB2 dvb-usb-dtt200u.ko 18
TwinhanDTV Alpha/MagicBoxII USB2 dvb-usb-vp7045.ko 32

This will not work if your kernel is enabled to use ksign, which secures kernel-modules against binary modifications.

Usage:

Run as root by executing: gksudo python dvb-remote-key-editor.py

Warning: This application binary patches a kernel module. Therefore be sure to make a backup of the module. THIS SOFTWARE COMES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY!
