Free filesharing software for linux

The MZL & Novatech Traffic Statistics Linux Server is intended to run in servers in intranet or on a gateway and allows to view the Linux servers network usage information on Windows workstations as HTML reports.
It reads IP packet from libpcap and allows users of the free Windows client to see the amount of bandwidth consumed as an icon in the system tray.
The user is able to see which hosts, services or ports were the top traffic consumers. MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic works on IP packet level, therefore the user gets reports on all the traffic, regardless wether this traffic was made by a browser, a filesharing software or a secure connection. It contains an editor for specification of local addresses and ports to be captured or not captured. This allows to capture traffic to a proxy or VPN but exclude the rest of local traffic.
MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic can be useful for many diffrent people:
- broadband (like DSL or cable) users with a volume metered (bandwidth limited) charge plan have always an eye on the currently accumulated consumed traffic.
- internet users with a flatrate can see whether a cheaper metered charge plan might be appropriate for their consumption habbits
- internet users are able to see, which services cause the most traffic
- internet users are able to see, how much traffic was consumed with their top target hosts
- operators of dedicated servers in a bandwidth metered charge plan get up-to-date statistics
- network operators can see bandwidth consumption cut by host and service of all machines in the local net
MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic contains an IP detail record (IPDR) generator developed on basis of ACE. MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic has be installed with administrator privilegues.
It is distributed as binaries for Linux with lib_c like Redhat 9, Suse 9 or Debian Sarge. The Traffic Statistics Windows client is needed to configure the Linux Server.

FuQT application is a client for Linux written in c++ for retrieving and inserting data on Secure Anonymous and Encrypted P2P network Freenet, Entropy_RSA.

Entropy RSA is a faster and more sophisticated replacement for Freenet, a distributed datastore filesharing network of peers.

Phex is a P2P filesharing client which is based on the Gnutella network. Phex offers advanced functions and integrates all common Gnutella extensions like multi-source downloads and advanced search features.
Main features:
Phex is a FREE of spyware and adware
- Phex never containd any kind of spyware, adware or any other kind of bundled software.
Multi-plattform support
- Whether you use MAC OS X, Linux, Solaris, or Windows Phex is able to run on them all. All you need is a operation system that offers a Java 1.4 Runtime Environment.
Multi-source downloads (Swarming)
- Often the file you like to download is available on different hosts. Phex will request different segment of the file from each host in parallel. After successfully downloading a segment Phex will merge it with the other segments of the file. This results in a much higher download speed. If a host is too slow the segment is split during download and given to an another host. To make sure you never run out of hosts Phex is able to find new download hosts by itself with the automatic search functionality.
Advanced configuration options
- Phex offers very advanced configuration options. Much more then many other clients can offer. Especially advanced user can configure Phex according to there needs and are able to tune and see the effect of different settings.
Passive searching and snooping for files
- With the passive search functionality Phex is able to constantly monitor the traffic that goes through the network and collect search results that match your passive search term. Also Phex snoops the traffic for new download candidates you need to finish your downloads faster. This type of searching is usefull for longtime monitoring of available files on the network.
Other features include:
- Multiple searches.
- Ultrapeer and compression technology for reduced bandwidth.
- Integrated chat.
- Browse host support.
- Bitzi metadata lookup.
- MAGMA support.
Enhancements:
- The GUI received many smaller improvements and a multitude of lesser and bigger changes happened under the hood.
- Download-side THEX integration was added, so poisoned files are no longer possible.
- The upload architecture was redesigned and a far leaner security system is used for better performance and a vastly reduced memory footprint.
- Many bugs were fixed.

Topologilinux is a FREE and open-source Linux distribution that can run on top or inside your
existing windows system.

The main thing with Topologilinux is that it does not require any partitioning at all. (uses a single file as linux root system) Topologilinux is therefore very easy to install.

Over the years, the Linux operating system has become very popular
among both computer enthusiastics and experimenting home users.

The trouble with the Linux operating system has always been getting
starting.

Here comes the solution of that problem !!

Topologilinux is a free linuxdistribution to be run on top of any dos/windows and new in version 5 is that you can run it inside your windows system without partitioning your hard disk.

It is very easy to install Unlike other Linux distributions

Topologilinux DOES NOT NEED ANY PARTITIONING.

It will run on your existing Windows/DOS partition in a directory named "/tlinux5". This release works on both NTFS and FAT partitions which means that you can run it under all existing Windows or dos systems. New in version 5 is that you can run it inside Windows through coLinux, you can also use X windows through a vnc server and then connect using a vnc viewer.

You can also run your existing windows program in Topologilinux through the windows emulator wine. Just enter wine your_program.exe

Also a great Office package is included, OpenOffice 1.1.3. To install copy all files to a temp directory and install it.

Topologilinux is a free Linuxdistribution but all donations of money are welcome.

Installation:

1. Backup important data before installing (see IMPORTANT: below)
2. start up windows and insert this CD and run topologilinux-setup.exe and create files (will normally start automatically)
3 Follow instructions and install the system (recommended is to install everything in coLinux mode (default) but you can also select not to do so and boot with this cd in and write "install" then press Enter (You need to have "boot from cd" enabled in bios) (for more advanced boot options press F1) (make sure to try all options in the F1 menu if default) (installation kernel fails). But as said before read the steps and follow instructions and select default alternatives.
A warning for the TAP driver will appear, accept this and continue the installation.
DO NOT FORGET TO DO the networking configuration if you want coLinux to work.
NOTE: that you may not use the cd-driver in any other open windows program like the filemanager explorer or anything like that if you do the setup through coLinux cause filesharing does not work between colinux and windows correct.
Also note that setting for colinux can easy be changed in the xml files /tlinux/colinux/*.xml
4. follow instructions, and install the software you want. It is always prefered to install ALL software
5. Your system is now installed, You can start it inside windows from the "Start Topologiliux" icon or do a reboot and use the grub based bootmanager to start it in real mode (much faster)
6. To use the X system inside Windows you need to start the Topologilinux system first then "Topologilinux X" to connect to the system.
NOTE: that you can not login as root from vnc (Topologilinux X) so you need to login as auser.. (can add more users by adduser command) (to be able to use internet inside topologilinux in colinux mode you need to do the steps listed in the /tlinux5/doc/network-installation.doc or the htm file)
7. After you have done all part in coLinuxmode you should restart your computer and start in "real-mode" and select start Topologilinux from the bootmanager. Then when you are there you should run setup to configure your system there too.
The first time you start up your system you will be prompted to setup your system, do so and then reboot it again and your system will be ready !

NOTE: When installing using more than one cd it might be troubles with mounting the second CD in coLinuxmode. But dont give up: try to first close all programs that uses the cdrom and try press continue, if that does not help you, open the cd in a windows "explorer" window and then try to close it again and wait about 10 sconds and try to press continue again. This step might be a bit triky but it should work. If it does not work for you try to do the installation in "real-mode" instead.

According the Network it might be a tricky part that to. Try the help that is available in this readme file, it it still fails try to search on colinux homepage or try the forums on topologilinux.com

Another thing to know is that if you during the setup in "real-mode" select to start in grafical login during X configuration, this will affect the coLinuxmode too. If you want to change it back just edit /etc/inittab and change to runlevel3 instead of 4.

rstudio project is a GTK+ GUI that controls programs used in recording, CD mastering, and managing a SHOUTcast server.
The "Radio Station" referred to here is a Shoutcast server. Before you can play any music on the station, you need to either record your own, or use a Peer-to-Peer program or other source to download some music.
The GTK-Gnutella button starts a peer to peer fileshareing program called GTK-Gnutella where you can get a wide variety of music free.
Start Radio station starts up the shoutcast server and its source client, which feeds an mp3 playlist to the server for broadcast.
The playlist file is created when you press the "Close" button in the playlist manager. The playlist manager lets you view either the downloaded files from GTK-Gnutella, or the permanent collection of files. You can select a file, then move it to the permanent collection, only if you are viewing the downloaded files. For either set, you may delete a file, or play it.
Audacity is a very versatile recording tool that can be used to create original content, or to record from other sources, such as a Shoutcast.com station, (or even your own shoutcast station).
Shoutcast.com button starts firefox, with the url of http://www.shoutcast.com so that you may listen to other shoutcast stations, or your own.
Kill XMMS stops any running xmms.
Quit exits rstudio.
GTK-Gnutella starts the P-2-P filesharing system.
K3B can be used to master audio CDs, or even mp3 data CDs that can be played on an mp3-compatible cd player or dvd player.
Enhancements:
- A shuffle playlist button was added.
- The audio player was changed to Audacious since Gentoo does not support XMMS.
- This version was tested on Gentoo AMD64 and Kubuntu 386.
