Free personality quiz software for linux

The Linux IP Personality patch adds to your Linux 2.4 kernel the ability to have different personalities network wise, that is to change some characteristics of its network traffic, depending on different parameters (anything you can specify in an iptables rule: src/dst IP address, TCP or UDP port, etc.)
The next characteristics can be changed:
TCP Initial Sequence Number (ISN)
TCP initial window size
TCP options (their types, values and order in the packet)
IP ID numbers
answers to some pathological TCP packets
answers to some UDP packets
They are deeply configurable.
This patch relies on the wonderful framework created by Rusty Russel: netfilter. More precisely, the patch adds a new iptables target (in a kernel module) that can be used in the mangle table with a (patched) iptables. This target is very configurable. See the documentation section for more details on how it works.
The primary objective of this patch is to counter network fingerprinting techniques, as described in Fyodors article.
Fyodor is the author of nmap, the famous port scanner that has a powerful remote OS detection engine. IP Personality can fool current versions of nmap, and is very configurable, so that it can probably fool any similar tool. The patch allows one to emulate the behaviour of any system listed in nmaps list of OS fingerprints. Some of its features can even be applied to routed traffic, and thus disturb scans directed to machines that are behind it. Some features (eg TCP ISN rewriting) can also be used to improve overall network security.
Enhancements:
- net, linux: updated for Linux 2.4.18, fixed all compile warnings and a potential Oops
- doc, misc: updated for latest changes
- email addresses: please note that it should be sourceforge.net

Kana no quiz project is a little tool to memorize japanese kana (hiragana & katakana).

The method is quite simple: kana randomly appear and you have to find their transcription in rōmaji (Hepburn). There are several possibilities, but only one anwser is right!

Thanks to this method, you memorize the kana to its transcription, and thus know how to pronouce it!

It has been translated into several languages, and many quiz options are configurable. Kana images have been initially modelled in SVG and are placed under the Free Art License.

Through its option panel, Kana no quiz allows you to tune up
the quiz precisely, like choosing which group of kana you want
to train yourself upon.

First, hiragana and katakana are separated, both are then di-vided into big sets of kana according to their type ("Basic", "Modified", "Combined"; and a special "Additional" set for katakana only) which are thus composed of various portions containing 5/6 kana, following the traditional alphabet order (i.e.: ``ka ki ku ke ko").

According to your need and level, you may select one or more portions of the same or different sets, whole sets, all the kana... Once you feel comfortable (you can check it with the results displayed at the end of each quiz), you may also increase the number of possible answers in the random list, or even choose to answer directly through the text entry. Difficulty can be adapted to your skill: this is progressive learning.

From the complete beginner who has to start easily and learn step by step, to the wizard who just wants to confirm his/her absolute master of the kana, everyone should get satisfated with Kana no quiz!

RearSite is a simple collaborative Web site manager. RearSite is an automated Web publishing tool allowing to control who is allowed to access the published documents and also to manage per directories collaboratives tools well adapted to distance learning (forums, chats, shareable calendars, or multimedia quizzes).

An administrator can create users accounts (user name, user passwd, and user home directory), users get logged in and then receive access to their documents.


RearSite is written in PERL (CGI.pm based) and use a FastCGI compliant HTTP server (like APACHE).

Using RearSite is quite simple : after login, the user has access to his home dir and is able to delete, rename, create and edit documents. RearSite is well adapted to install WWW directories previously cooked (using any editors). Its very easy to transfer and install archives (ZIP, tar or tar.gz by now), they are automatically unpacked.

Published documents are public (by default), access restriction may be done using user/password couples, DNS domains or LDAP filters.

The user interface is WWW forms like, so RearSite only needs (on the client side) a Java, JavaScript and frames compliant WWW browser (accepting cookies).

RearSite is now quite secured, the login process (developped in Java) use an MD5 encryption of the user password (combined with a one time key). So, people spying the network cannot use the keys they may have seen. After login, users receive a cookie associated with their computers IP numbers.

RearSite also allows the user to specify who can retrieve his documents by configuring access rights :

documents are public (the default).
documents are restricted to users coming from trusted domains.
documents are restricted to users coming from trusted domains or to HTTP authenticated users.
* documents are restricted to class of users existing in an LDAP directory. This kind of HTTP client authentication needs auth_ldap for Apache (See restricted access by users classes).

Since 1.1, if the administrator wants it, the user is able to use templates to specify per directories access rights. By default (and as an example), the user can easily say that a directory is public, for frenchies only or for frenchies excepted those in the ripoux.fr domain (french joke!).

The user is also able to share his directories with other RearSite users (trusted users). When a directory is shared, a trusted user user is able to delete, rename, add ... files within the directory he received rights for.

The user is also able to recursively process all the file names of all his embeded directories. The functionality provided is to rename all files (lowercase, replace a string within all file names, ...) which simplyfies migration from systems with case-insensitive file names. These functionalities are available by selecting the Special tools button which also give a way to export the current directory within an archive (ZIP or tar.gz).

Since 1.4, a forum can directly be attached to each directories. When a user wants to create a forum, the result is a Forum.html file located within the current directory. This file will give access to the forum. People having access to this file are allowed to post in the forum.

Since 1.6, a chat can directly be attached to each directories. When a user wants to create a chat, the result is a Chat.html file located within the current directory. This file will give access to the chat. People having access to this file are allowed to talk in the chat.

Since 1.9, a shareable calendar can be directly attached to each directories. When a user wants to create a calendar, the result is a Calendar.html file located within the current directory. This file will give access to the calendar. People having access to this file are allowed to read the calendar. Only the owner of a calendar is allowed to update it, but he may allow other users. Accessing his calendar via RearSite allows the owner to update it immediatly. When accessing a calendar via a normal WWW access, the user (owner or not) must be authenticated (via Rearsite configured authentication scheeme) before being allowed to update it.

The chat,forum and calendar functionalities are accessible via the Communications button, they have been designed for distance learning purposes but can easily be used for any groupware needs.

dialogquiz game contains anagrams, hangman, and trivia questions.

Dialogquiz is a collection of console-based trivia quizzes for Linux. Currently the collection consists of anagrams, multiple choice questions and hangman, with around 30,000 questions in total.

Subjects range from The Sopranos to English monarchs, 80s rock to capital cities.

Dialogquiz is written in perl, and is console based. It has been tested on RHEL, Debian, and Slackware, and should work without problems on other Linux distros. It will likely also run on Unix, although this has not been confirmed. Support for more obscure OSes such as MS Windows is not planned.

Please read the INSTALL file for installation instructions. Youll also need the dialog tool (sometimes packaged as cdialog), and perl v5.0 or higher.

All quiz questions were created from data on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org), and were converted into a suitable format using our friends cut, sed, grep, and perl. Wikipedias content is covered by the GPL, as is dialogquiz.

If you spot any inaccuracies in the questions, please hesitate to mail me: I dont have the time or incling to correct apparent mistakes. That said, mail is welcome on any other issue (bugs , feedback, praise/critisism, invitations to help out deposed
Nigerian politicians etc). If youve installed sucessfully on a non-Linux platform, Id certainly like to hear.

AKFQuiz project lets you easily make your own quiz games, learning exercises or psychotests. These can be used with grquiz in a graphical environment, with diaquiz in a GUI environment or with crtquiz on the text-console. There is also a line oriented variant, linequiz, which can be used as a backend.

A CGI-variant, akfquiz.cgi can be installed on a Web server to offer exercises via Internet or a local network.

Or you can use mkquiz, which generates an HTML file for to use with JavaScript. Those can then be published using any deliberate web-space provider.

Postfix-policy is a policy server that uses ServerKit to achieve a high level of performance and scalability for Postfix servers.

This project is ideal for use with large mail systems utilizing Postfix for MX duties and MySQL for the management of accounts with basic policy needs.

Usage:

It is advised that you read the ServerKit documentation before trying to use this module, as most of the basic usage is simply using ServerKit, nothing specific to this module.

You will probably want to use the included ServerKit personality as a starting point, found in the source archive as a directory named "personality". Within the personality you will find a "c11n" file, a "modules" subdirectory, and a "svsdir" subdirectory.

The "c11n" file is a ServerKit configuration file, you will need to at least modify the database settings so ServerKit can successfully communicate with your database system. Another configuration value that you will definitely have to set is "action_query_format_string".

The "action_query_format_string" is the SQL query postfix-policy will use to retrieve an action to send back to Postfix in response to policy delegation requests. See the Configuration section for a list of supported substitutions for use in the format string.

You are responsible for creating a query that is compatible with your mail system database schema, and ensuring that the query will:

1. return an empty set for invalid recipients
2. return a valid action string when not returning an empty set

For an explanation of valid policy action responses, see the access(5) manual reference from Postfix, youre interested in the *ACTIONS sections

Keen little rabbit ears is a simple ear training program for Linux and Windows. It is free of charge. You can exercise the recogniton of intervalls, chords, scales and chord progressions.
Keen little rabbit ears requires the installation of Perl (Version 5), Perl/Tk, Perl::MIDI and an extermal MIDI player, like timidity (Verion 0.2i). Keen little rabbit ears is written in perl, uses Perl/Tk for the user interface, Perl::MIDI to write MIDI files and timidity to play MIDI files.
This is an early release, which means that there is a number of features which are not implemented. But keen little rabbit ears works pretty fine on my Pentium 90 using Suse Linux (Version 6.1) and under Window 95 too.
I strongly recommend everyone to read a good book on this. There are several ways to train. In general you do it like this. In the first level only select 2 or 3 items you already know or which are
the most common. In the next level you proceed and add the next 2 common items.
Below is are two lists, which can be used as guideline. But it is usually better to ask your teacher which exercises should you train.
Enhancements:
- Quiz mode
- advanced root note selection
- extension to playing direction (both)
- highlighting of selected instrument / root note
- 440 Hz (sing an "a" test)
- bug fix (pitch drill)

OpenGrade is software for teachers to keep track of grades. OpenGrade can put the students grade reports on a Web server and allow the students password-protected access to them.
Main features:
- A variety of reports can be created.
- Grades can be uploaded to a web server, where students can have password-protected access to them.
- If you use a set grading scale, you can have the software use it to compute letter grades automatically.
- Grades can be based on total points, or on a weighted average of scores in various categories such as exams and quizzes.
- You can drop the lowest grade (or the N lowest grades) from a given category.
- Students can be dropped and later reinstated without losing all their grades.
- There is support for extra-credit categories, and for categories that dont count towards the students grade.
- Gradebook files are password-protected with a digital watermark, so you can detect tampering.
- Gradebook files are in a plain-text format, which makes it easy to work with them using Unix utilities.
You might also want to check out Ggradebook and Grades, which are two other open-source programs along similar lines. There is a category for this kind of software on Open Directory.
OpenGrade is designed to cooperate with my software Spotter. By using the two pieces of software together, you can post grade reports on the web, keep track of your students e-mail addresses, and collect certain kinds of work from them online.
Enhancements:
- This version correctly recognizes Perl/Tk 804.027 as being compatible with itself, rather than insisting on 804.029 or higher.
