Free probably software for linux

crackblock is a daemon that monitors your /var/log/secure for brute-force password crack attempts and ssh login failures.

The rpm should install on any rpm based system and requires iptables, tail, PERL, and PERLs syslog features. All of which are probably already installed on your system.

Cool Blue is a desktop widget for SuperKaramba for system monitoring.

It has cool blue translucent background (which I made with help of Karbon14, Krita and the mighty Gimp) and displays everything I need (and probably what you need too).

It can interact with XMMS. Well, its a matter of personal taste, but I still like XMMS more than AmaroK...

Anyway, if you want, it should be easy changing it to use amaroK. Maybe even Ill do this if I have free time and appropriate mood.

Red Hat Linux is probably the best-known Linux distribution. Red Hat Linux is well-supported by commercial software, and tends to be easy to install and have good hardware support out of the box.

Compaq has taken over the maintenance for Red Hat for their Alpha processor - theres a link to their Alpha Red Hat page below.

Red Hat 9 is the last version of Red Hat Linux per se, and Red Hat will stop supporting it soon. Instead they offer a commercial Linux distribution, "Red Hat Enterprise Edition", and a free distribution, "The Fedora Project".

IP::Country is a tool for fast lookup of country codes from IP addresses. Finding out the country of a client using only the IP address can be difficult.

Looking up the domain name associated with that address can provide some help, but many IP address are not reverse mapped to any useful domain, and the most common domain (.com) offers no help when looking for country.

IP::Country module comes bundled with a database of countries where various IP addresses have been assigned. Although the country of assignment will probably be the country associated with a large ISP rather than the client herself, this is probably good enough for most log analysis applications, and under test has proved to be as accurate as reverse-DNS and WHOIS lookup.

phpLanParty project is a Lan Party registration application.
phpLanParty is an application to administer Lan Parties.If you host gaming sites, parties, tournaments, or the like, you may be interested in using this utility.
Main features:
- Its fast, easy, and easily modified to suit your needs.
- Being written in PHP, is multi-platform. Although its only been used and tested on Linux, it should work well on other Unix-like platforms, and probably the Win32 platform, provided the required packages (below) are installed.

OCaml-FreeTDS is a binding to the ct-lib component of the FreeTDS library, for accessing Sybase and Microsoft (or other TDS) database servers.
If you dont know what "ct-lib" means then you should probably not be using this, but rather OCamlDBI ; a more general and simple database layer, for which OCaml-FreeTDS bindings exist.
Main features:
- ct-lib binding
- ocamldbi interface (should be in the ocamldbi package)
- Examples provided for each in the distribution
Enhancements:
- This version fixes the configure script so anyone with FreeTDS in a funny place, or the real Sybase libs, can adjust their paths appropriately. It is known to build against the Sybase libs, and FreeTDS 0.6.1 and above. Support for old FreeTDS is not something I think is valuable, since it is free to upgrade.
- However... The Sybase libs cause a segfault, probably because of some value specific to FreeTDS that I use, but since I dont have them I cant find out! Any testing by others would be greatly appreciated.

PictureStories lets you make little webpages of stories you write where some of the words are replaced with images which is called rebus. What makes PictureStories cool is that the images are dynamically pulled from popular web-based image search engines (like Google).

Weve seen lots of cute little storybooks for kids that are like this, and we thought itd be neat to be able to do my own. Someone has probably had this idea before, but we couldnt find anything online anywhere, so we wrote it.
