Free network filesystem software for linux

FUR is a application that let the user mount a Windows CE based device on your Linux file system: it uses the brilliant FUSE (acronym of File system in UserSpacE of Miklos Szeredi) and the great librapi2 of the Synce Project, a unix implementation of the RAPI protocol (that your device use to communicate with your other operating $ystem ) which you can find here, along with other very nice tools.
You execute it with proper arguments, then (if everything goes fine) the entire file system of your (previously connected) handheld will appear automagically mounted like a regular Linux file system where you will be able to copy, move read and write data with your favorite programs.
FUR filesystem means FUSE use libRAPI.
What dose not?
- Not very stable, particulary if used concurrently by different processes (but should be usable).
- Not well tested.
- The source is horrible(Tm).
- The implementation is more involved than it should.
- Lack documentation.
- Not even remotely optimized.
- Configuration tools deficient.
- Random access I/O is anti-optimized.
- Write is bugged (maybe a problem with concurrent file access).
- The resource locking system (e.g. to prevent different processes to write on the same file) is only roughly implemented (theres a lot to be done).
- Total absence of a caching system of some sort (which i hope to implement, sooner or later).
- Some errors are to obscure (and maybe not well implemented).
- Some attributes (e.g. ctime) are not implemented (the needed function in the librapi2 library is not yet implemented).
- No UID/GID check: this is not a security issue: only the user that invoke the dccm demon can access the filesystem, but other users should be able to see some kind of error message (which i will implement soon).
- Lot of other things i have forgot now.
- The log reporting suck

Network Traffic Analyser provides a script-driven network traffic monitor.

Network Traffic Analyser (formerly known as sniffer) is designed to be an extremely powerful, configurable, and versatile tool for monitoring network traffic.

It can be used as a plain sniffer, as a tool for accounting, dynamic firewall updates, and many more things.

It features scripting support and an event-driven architecture.

The idea behind this project is to create a powerful tool for playing around with network traffic. The basic concepts are simplicity and flexibility. Instead of building tool that does something specific (and does a good job at it), were trying to build a tool that will be able to do whatever you want it to do (and still be good at it :).

To put it very simply, you write a script that will be invoked for every packet that passes through your network. You write your scripts in a Tcl, fully blown, interpreted programming language. That fact guaranties that you wont be constrained in your creativity.

Network Traffic Analyzer analyzes the network traffic on multiple network devices and creates HTML statistics with some network usage graphs. Sometimes it is good to know, how the network is used, how many bytes were received and how many bytes were sent.Therefore, here is Network Traffic Analyzer, which creates simple network usage statistics.


Such statistics can tell you, how good your network connection really is (who cares about what Internet provider say, when was the network down, which time is the best time for downloading large packages of data etc. etc. Or with this software you can just better imagine, how many traffic can your home computer generate.

Sys::Filesystem project is intended to be a portable interface to list and query filesystem names and their properties.

It hopes to provide a consistent API to list all, mounted, unmounted, and special filesystems on a system, and query as many properties as possible with common aliases wherever possible.

Intelligent Filesystem Guard is a tool that monitors information about changes in files and directories.

Intelligent Filesystem Guard can be used either for the detection of changes in important files (as an intrusion detection system guarding data against viruses and Trojan horses) or for guarding user data.

A large emphasis is put on monitoring files. One of the functions of this system is to tell what happened with the file according to a user query. The system is able to warn of any sort of change, such as modification, creation, erasure, or movement.

Network Probe and protocol analyzer is the ultimate tool for traffic-level network monitoring, troubleshooting, analysis,
If your network is crawling to a standstill, and you suspect there might be a problem with the network traffic, Network Probe will quickly help you identify what is causing the problem, show you who is generating any troublesome traffic, and where the traffic is being transmitted.
Network Probe will collect traffic statistics for all protocols, hosts, and conversations on your network, and show you all the top talkers and listeners on your network. Hosts generating large amounts of traffic such as music and movie streaming, playing online games, or listening to streaming media are easily identified.
Main features:
- Watch in real time which protocols are used on your network
- Watch in real time which hosts are active on your network and the Internet
- Watch in real time which conversations are taking place on your network and to and from the Internet
- Watch in real time detailed protocol statistics per host
- Watch in real time detailed protocol statistics per conversation
- Watch in real time network card details for your network
- Watch traffic amount of selected entries relative to the total and filtered traffic
- Watch traffic amount over time for any host, conversation, and protocol
- Watch in real time network throughput for the entire network segment
- Inspect detailed logged statistical data from days and weeks earlier
- Filter out and search for selected protocols, hosts, conversations, and network cards
- Sort network traffic by amount of data transmitted or received
- Export network traffic statistics data
- Configure users with restricted access to statistical data
