Free mirrors software for linux

offmirror is a utility for mirroring a tree of files. Unlike other mirroring tools, it works offline and does not require a network or some kind of direct connect between the source and the destination.
offmirror makes it possible to place all the data that is needed to synchronize a file tree onto a removable storage medium. offmirror project works with regular files, directories, symbolic links, and special files.
Enhancements:
- update my e-mail
- new shtool version
- mirrorer script contributed by Konstantin L. Metlov
- Do not use Exporter and its vars -- nothing to export

Tk::Mirror is a Perl extension for a graphic user interface to update local or remote directories in both directions.

SYNOPSIS

# in the simplest kind and manner
use Tk::Mirror;
use Tk;
my $mw->MainWindow->new();
$mw->Mirror()->grid();
MainLoop();
# in a detailed kind
use Tk;
use Tk::Mirror;
my $mw = MainWindow->new();
my $mirror = $mw->Mirror(
-localdir => "TestA",
-remotedir => "TestD",
-usr => my_ftp@username.de
-ftpserver => "ftp.server.de",
-pass => "my_password",
-debug => 1,
-delete => "enable",
-exclusions => ["private.txt", "secret.txt"],
-timeout => 60,
-connection => undef, # or a connection to a ftp-server
)->grid();
for(keys(%{$mirror->GetChilds()}))
{
$mirror->Subwidget($_)->configure(
-font => "{Times New Roman} 14 {bold}",
);
}
for(qw/
TreeLocalDir
TreeRemoteDir
/)
{
$mirror->Subwidget($_)->configure(
-background => "#FFFFFF",
-width => 40,
-height => 20,
);
}
for(qw/
bEntryUsr
EntryPass
bEntryFtpServer
bEntryLocalDir
bEntryRemoteDir
/)
{
$mirror->Subwidget($_)->configure(
-background => "#FFFFFF",
);
}
MainLoop();

This is a graphic user interface to compare and update local with remote directories in both directions.

File::Mirror is a Perl extension for recursive directory copy.

SYNOPSIS

use File::Mirror;

# recurvie copy /path/A to /path/B

mirror /path/A, /path/B;

# or do things you like

recursive { my ($from, $to) = @_; copy($from, $to) } /path/A, /path/B;

File::Mirror provides two helper functions to do recursive directory operations between source path and destination path. One is to call mirror which will do recursive copy. The other is to call recursive with a code block, which will be code for every file found in the source path.

File::Mirror fills the gap between File::Copy::Recursive, which only focuses on file copying, and File::Find, which is too obstacal to use.

mirmon project monitors the state of mirrors.
Every hour the root site writes a fresh timestamp somewhere in the archive; mirror sites copy this timestamp when they update the mirror archive. Mirmon periodically retrieves these timestamps from the mirror sites. It generates a html report and a flat state file.
Mirmons actions and report are directed by a config file. There are many configuration parameters, but most have acceptable defaults. Only a few project specific items need to be specified. Once configured, mirmon can be run by cron every hour.
Mirror sites are probed at certain (user defined) intervals (default every 4 hours). Sites that are (temporarily) unreachable are probed more often (by default hourly) until a probe is successful.
The state file has a simple format and can be used for other administrative purposes (mailing admins of stale mirrors, directing users to fresh mirrors, etc).
Options:
option v : be verbose
option q : be quiet
option t : set timeout [ default 300 ] ;
option get : all : probe all sites
: update : probe a selection of the sites
option c : configuration file ; default list : ./mirmon.conf $HOME/.mirmon.conf etc/mirmon.conf
Enhancements:
- Some averages were added to the reports that mirmon generates.

Net::UploadMirror is a Perl extension for mirroring a local directory via FTP to the remote location.

SYNOPSIS

use Net::UploadMirror;
my $um = Net::UploadMirror->new(
ftpserver => "my_ftp.hostname.com",
usr => "my_ftp_usr_name",
pass => "my_ftp_password",
);
$um->Update();

or more detailed
my $um = Net::UploadMirror->new(
ftpserver => "my_ftp.hostname.com",
usr => "my_ftp_usr_name",
pass => "my_ftp_password",
localdir => "home/nameA/homepageA",
remotedir => "public",
debug => 1 # 1 for yes, 0 for no
timeout => 60 # default 30
delete => "enable" # default "disabled"
connection => $ftp_object, # default undef
exclusions => ["private.txt", "Thumbs.db", ".sys", ".log"],
);
$um->SetLocalDir("home/nameB/homepageB");
print("hostname : ", $um->get_ftpserver(), "n");
$um->Update();

This module is for mirroring a local directory to a remote location via FTP. For example websites, documentations or developmentstuff which ones were worked on locally. It is not developt for mirroring large archivs. But there are not in principle any limits.

Magic Mirror Backup works by copying the files and folders on your computer to other computers within your office. In exchange, these other computers also copy their own files onto your computer.
This sharing of backups has quite a few advantages not the least of which are that it is extremely convenient and cost effective. (This symbiotic mechanism for backing up data is often called peer to peer backup or p2p backup.)
There is also an optional off-site component so that you can additionally backup to a remote server to protect against office-wide failures like fire, theft, or hurricanes.
Main features:
- It works with your existing hardware requiring no new hardware investment and providing greater value for your existing investment.
- It will work in conjunction with your existing backup strategy. If you make regular backups to external media, thats great. Use Magic Mirror Backup to add daily backup protection to your critical or frequently changing data.
- It is automatic - you do not need to worry about swapping tapes, Zip Disks, or CD-Rs.

This sharing of backups has quite a few advantages not the least of which are that it is extremely convenient and cost effective. (This symbiotic mechanism for backing up data is often called peer to peer backup or p2p backup.)
Here are some of the commonly requested details on how Magic Mirror Backup works:
- Backups are password protected so that, when a password is specified, others in your office will not be able to read your files (without breaking into your account, which would require a great deal of technical expertise and hacking).
- Backups are only sent to computers you select - your backups will not be sent to computers that you have not authorized.
- You select the files and folders for backup. If you want to limit the size of the backups stored on the computers in your office, you can choose to only backup your "My Documents" and email folders, for instance. If, on the other hand, all the computers have plenty of free space, you can expand the backup to cover less critical files as well.

libextractor is a library that is used to extract meta-data from files of arbitrary type. It is designed to use helper-libraries to perform the actual extraction, and to be trivially extendable by linking against external extractors for additional file types. libextractor is part of the GNU project. Our official GNU website can be found at http://www.gnu.org/software/libextractor/. libextractor can be downloaded from this site or the GNU mirrors.
The goal is to provide developers of file-sharing networks or WWW-indexing bots with a universal library to obtain simple keywords to match against queries. libextractor contains a shell-command "extract" that, similar to the well-known "file" command, can extract meta-data from a file an print the results to stdout.
Currently, libextractor supports the following formats: HTML, PDF, PS, OLE2 (DOC, XLS, PPT), OpenOffice (sxw), StarOffice (sdw), DVI, MAN, MP3 (ID3v1 and ID3v2), OGG, WAV, JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, DEB, RPM, TAR(.GZ), ZIP, ELF, REAL, RIFF (AVI), MPEG, QT and ASF.
Also, various additional MIME types are detected.
libextractor is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
Enhancements:
- This release fixes various build problems and a crash with recent versions of libgsf.
vAn incomplete manual was added.

Expresso Framework provides an architectural framework.
Expresso Framework is an open standards-based J2EE architectural framework that allows the developer to concentrate on application logic.
It is a library of extensible Java Server application framework components for creating database-driven Web applications based on open standards. Expresso integrates with Apache Jakarta Struts, which emphasizes presentation and application configuration, and bringing a powerful tag library to Expresso.
Expresso adds capabilities for security, robust object-relational mapping, background job handling and scheduling, self-tests, logging integration, automated table manipulation, database connection pooling, email connectivity, event notification, error handling, caching, internationalization, XML automation, testing, registration objects, configuration management, workflow, automatic database maintenance, and a JSP tag library.
Enhancements:
- Move password hash to UserInfo interface and its implementers: password hash no longer in User.java facade, but rather in UserInfo.java interface and its implementers. This allows more flexibility in handling external authentication.

- RequestRegistry automatically sets data context and security parameters: All calls to setDataContext() will no longer be necessary in client code. This info is propagated using ThreadLocal variables and the "Registry" pattern as described by Martin Fowler. Security parameters (i.e., requesting UID) are also propagated to RowSecuredDBObject, but for the sake of backwards compatibility, they are not propagated to SecuredDBObject. CheckLogin does this work. However, this functionality is also available in a servlet filter, RequestRegistryFilter. If you choose to use RequestRegistryFilter, you could do away with CheckLogin calls from the controller. We would use RequestRegistryFilter everywhere, but legacy installations have various URL paths, each of which requires filtering.
