Free knee socks software for linux

tsocks provides transparent network access through a SOCKS version 4 or 5 proxy (usually on a firewall).

SOCKS servers are a form of proxy that are commonly used in firewalled LAN environments to allow access between networks, and often to the Internet. The problem is that most applications dont know how to gain access through SOCKS servers. This means that network based applications that dont understand SOCKS are very limited in networks they can reach. An example of this is simple telnet.

tsocks role is to allow these non SOCKS aware applications (e.g telnet, ssh, ftp etc) to use SOCKS without any modification. It does this by intercepting the calls that applications make to establish network connections and negotating them through a SOCKS server as necessary. If youre on a network firewalled from the internet with a SOCKS server for outside access, telnet cant use this server and thus cant telnet out to the Internet., sou you cannot get out.

tsocks is based on the shared library interceptor concept. Through use of the LD_PRELOAD environment variable or the /etc/ld.so.preload file tsocks is automatically loaded into the process space of every executed program. From there it overrides the normal connect() function by providing its own. Thus when an application calls connect() to establish a TCP connection it instead passes control to tsocks. tsocks determines if the connection needs to be made via a SOCKS server (by checking /etc/tsocks.conf) and negotiates the connection if so (through use of the real connect() function )

Socks via HTTP provides a socks tunnel via HTTP.

Socks via HTTP is a program converting SOCKS requests into HTTP requests and tunnelling them through HTTP proxies if needed.

The SOCKS protocol allows programs to traverse firewalls on any port number and is used by many popular programs, like Napster, MSN Messenger, CRT(telnet client) and many others.

Many companies restrict firewall traversals only to HTTP requests, disabling SOCKS proxy.

Socks via HTTP provides a miniature SOCKS server for the SOCKS client, performing its connection through an HTTP proxy to a remote server, which establishes the real connection.

Socks via HTTP is 100% Java, and can run on any OS. It is entirely written in Java.

bufsock.py is a python module that makes it a little bit easier to work with sockets, and may also make your I/O faster if youre reading and/or writing lots of tiny packets.

Also, you may find that it makes your network applications more reliable, as the network is allowed to split apart your packets into multiple smaller packets, or aggregate two or more packets into one larger packet, if it decides it needs to do so for reliability or performance.

So you might do a s.recv expecting to get one line of input, but the network decided to batch together two remote s.sends into one s.recv, for example. But the network usually, but not always, will batch up your packets the way youd expect - so this can be a difficult problem to track down.

It supports the following methods:

read(length) brings in a specific number of bytes.
readto(char) reads up thru the next occurence of char
readtomax(char,length) reads up thru the next occurence of char, or length bytes, whichever is less
set_chunk_len(length) says "do reads and writes in increments of length". The chunk length defaults to 4096. You should make this larger on networks that employ jumbo frames to squeeze out more performance!
send(buf) writes the bytes in buf.
flush() is just like stdios (the C librarys) flush function. Call it when you want an output buffer flushed (written immediately).
shutdown(v) just like for a regular socket, except it flushes first.

Usage:

Code snippet:
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)
sock.connect((hostname,port))
bs = bufsock.bufsock(sock)
version = bs.readto(n)
print version

Cone project is a text-based mail client. Cone seamlessly handles multiple POP3, IMAP accounts, and local mail folders.
Cone is also a simple newsreader. Cones interface is foolproof enough to be used by inexperienced users, but it also offers advanced features for power users.
Main features:
- An online tutorial provides a quick overview of Cones main features.
- A built-in text editor for editing new messages, with search/replace and spell checking (requires aspell or pspell).
- Shortcuts - assign frequently used text to a function key, or to an abbreviation. Insert the text by pressing the function key or typing its abbreviation.
- Supports UTF-8 consoles (requires the wide-character version of the curses library).
- Displays HTML mail, with automatic de-moronization ("smart quotes", and similar clutter, is replaced by plain garden-variety punctuation).
- Displays attached images, if invoked from an X terminal, by running Gnomes eog, or KDEs kview image viewer. Displays PDF attachments by running xpdf. Other, or alternative, helper applications will be added as time permits.
- After attachments are downloaded, they can be optionally removed from the message.
- Handles local mail folders, maildirs, IMAP and POP3 accounts, and Usenet newsgroups. All folders are shown in a hierarchical tree-like display.
- Supports access to servers through a Socks 5 proxy, using the Courier Socks 5 API toolkit.
- Sends mail using an external SMTP server (with/without authentication), or the local sendmail command.
- All network protocols support SSL/TLS and SASL (CRAM-MD5, CRAM-SHA1, and LOGIN).
- Address books (which can be stored in an IMAP folder).
- Remote configuration (share a common configuration between different instances of Cone).
- An optional "single sign-on". Use a single master password for multiple remote mail server accounts.
- PGP/GPG based encryption, and digital signatures. Sent messages are automatically signed. Different signing keys may be selected for different mail accounts, and the appropriate key is automatically selected when replying to a message from an account. Selecting a message for an encryption automatically looks up keys that match the recipients E-mail addresses.
- Import, export, forward and receive PGP/GPG keys as MIME attachments.
- When a single sign-on master password is installed, the master password also handles access to passphrase-protected keys.
- Cone shares a lot of its code base with the Courier mail server, which is why they share the same web site together.
- Cone also serves as a platform for development of a new experimental network mail access protocol, SMAP, that offers additional functionality not available with IMAP or POP3.
- Cone owes its versatility in handling a large variety of mail protocols to the fact that its based on LibMAIL, a generic C++ library that provides a high-level mail-handling API. Using the --with-devel configuration setting installs the LibMAIL toolkit, which allows for development of independent E-mail software.
Enhancements:
- This release fixes a bug in GPG signing of multi-part messages whose main content contains 8-bit text.

GNet is a network library. It is object-oriented, written in C, and built upon GLib. It is intended to be easy to use and port. It supports abstract Internet addresses, TCP, UDP, IP Multicast, IPv6, asynchronous DNS lookups, SHA, MD5, Base64, URIs, and SOCKS.
It comes with documentation and examples.
Main features:
- TCP "client" and "server" sockets
- UDP and IP Multicast sockets
- High-level TCP connection and server objects
- Asynchronous socket IO
- Internet address abstraction
- Asynchronous DNS lookup
- IPv4 and IPv6 support
- Byte packing and unpacking
- URI parsing
- SHA and MD5 hashes
- Base64 encoding and decoding
- SOCKS support

Enhancements:
- Shiny new installer
- Standards Compliance improvements
- Fixed style sheet selector in admin
- New Offline-mode
- Code clean-ups
- Security Fixes
