MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic Linux Server 1.2.0.0
The MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic Linux Server collects IP usage statistics from the network interfaces. more>>
The MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic Linux Server program can be installed on a Linux machine to collect IP usage statistics from their interfaces. The Traffic Statistics Linux Server will store the IP data records on the Linux machine and the Traffic Statistic Report Service will form the HTML reports Traffic Statistics Linux Server starting from the records. For configuration it is needed to have the Windows GUI installed on another machine, that connects via HTTP to the Linux machine.
The intended usecase is the bandwidth usage monitoring of a Linux gateway to the internet or a VPN peer in an environment of Windows workstations. When installed once properly on the Linux gateway, the Traffic Statistics Linux Server can be configured with the Windows GUI from any client in the network and the statistics can also be viewed using the Windows GUI.
As Linux is a powerful and secure networking OS with features like traffic shaping and rule based packet mangling, there are many reasons to run a Linux gateway even when using otherwise Windows clients for other typical office or industrial applications. The Traffic Statistics server allows administrators or managers to get detailed IP network usage statistics on IP packet level broken down by day, host and service at their Windows workstations. The program is free of charge, free of adware and free of any time or functional limitation. Without having any plugin or upgrade installed it will help users to make wise decisions in the selecting of an appropriate volume tariff model, it allows to monitor volume consumption comfortably in tray in almost realtime so that users are always aware, how far they are from a volume tariffs limit and it shows, which hosts and servers consumed the most traffic in the current period.
We also provide powerful plugins for the Linux server, which make MZL & Novatech TrafficStatistic even more interesting and efficient for monitoring volume consumption on a company level.

gnetload network load meter 1.2
gnetload network load meter is a network and ISDN load meter that is similar to xisdnload. more>>
It includes an agent (devstata) that runs on machines with interfaces to be monitored and periodically sends status information over the network. A display program (gnetload) collects and displays the data.
Both can be run on the same machine, or be used to report on the state of a dedicated router on another machine. Using multicast or broadcast addresses, data can be fed to more than one instance of gnetload. A menu for taking network interfaces up and down is also provided.
Usage: ./gnetload [-I] [-t tickscale] [-g geometry] [-d] [ip]:port
Enhancements:

NetDirector 3.1.2
NetDirector is an open and extensible management framework for managing configurations of common open source network services. more>>
NetDirector offers both form driven and fine-grained control of server configuration files with many added benefits including rollback and policy-based access. It can manage both Linux and most any flavor of Unix. However, the preferred platform to host NetDirector Server Manager on is Linux.
What can you manage with NetDirector?
Today you can manage the following configurations through an easy-to-use form based web console. Or you can edit the entire configuration file in an editor manually but with the added advantage of automated version control.
- HTTP (Apache)
- DNS (BIND)
- DHCP
- File and Print Services (Samba, NFS)
- Email (Postfix, Sendmail)
- FTP (VSFTP)
- Users and Groups (mass add users to multiple servers at once.
- Network Interfaces
- Numerous System files
What else can NetDirector do beyond configuration management?
NetDirector is more than just a configuration tool, NetDirector has additional features including the following:
- Rollbacks (Revision Control) of each change made to a service accross any number of servers
- Troubleshooting/Logs
- Schedule Changes to occur anytime in the future
- Server configuration cloning.
- Intuitive integrated support for managing clustered servers and disaster recovery configurations.
- Track Past or Scheduled Changes to be done
- Track who made what changes and when
- Granular Role based user management
These capabilities can be applied to other server functions. For example, you could adapt NetDirector to schedule and run shell scripts on servers under management. Or, you could develop a module to provide system backups using Amanda as or simply use NetDirector as a way to front-end access to all servers, giving you the ability to tighten the points of authentication to servers and add an additional layer of security.
X Interface Monitor 1.8.4
X Interface Monitor monitors any network interface for traffic, load average, and various other statistics. more>>
It also has options to run `connect and `disconnect scripts, for dialup modem users who want easy connecting and disconnecting.
NetworkControl 0.1
NetworkControl is a utility to control and monitor network interfaces, including wireless ones. more>>
NetworkControl addresses a conspicuous lack in most Linux distributions most tend to be short on easy-to-use network utilities, even something as trivial as a robust, informative way to log on and off a dialup connection. NetworkControl also provides the connection IP, configuration and statistics (gleaned from "ifconfig" and updated each second), and provides graphic signal levels for wireless interfaces, handy for evaluating a system of wireless devices.
NetworkControl allows you to see network activity at a glance and lets you control your network interfaces in a fast, convenient way. It is designed to be easy to use and informative.
If you have downloaded the binary, just put it in /usr/local/bin, give it executable permissions and run it like this:
networkcontrol
You can make a desktop shortcut with this as its executable target.
If you have downloaded the source package:
Put it in any convenient location.
tar -xjf networkcontrol.tar.bz2
cd networkcontrol.dist
./auto_install.sh
If you dont want the automatic installation or you want to fine-tune the process, instead of running "auto_install.sh", after the unpacking step above, do this:
make -f Makefile.cvs dist
./configure
make
sudo make install
Obviously you may want to modify some of these steps to suit your platform.
KNetworkManager 0.1
KNetworkManager is the KDE front end for NetworkManager. more>>
The range of functions encompasses the features implemented by NetworkManager daemon. Up until now NetworkManager supports:
Wired Ethernet Devices (IEEE 802.3)
Wireless Ethernet Devices (IEEE 802.11): Unencrypted, WEP, WPA Personal, WPA Enterprise
Virtual Private Network (VPN): OpenVPN, VPNC
Dial-Up (PPP)
How does it work?
For both, Wireless LAN and Wired LAN, NetworkManager supports devices known to HAL. Unless working in offline mode, NetworkManager tries to keep the system connected at any time. For this, NetworkManager follows the following policy.
Once started, NetworkManager asks HAL about available network interfaces. If a wired network interface with a carrier is found, NetworkManager connects to this. Either by DHCP (default) or by setting up previously defined static configuration. Later on, when KNetworkManager starts up, NetworkManager will expose its information about network devices and wireless networks found by scanning to the applet.
At this point, if a user decides to unplug the wired connection, NetworkManager will not connect to an arbitrary wireless network. By default all available networks are untrusted. Only if a user decides to connect to a network manually once, this specific network n henceforth being marked as trusted.
n = { ESSID, Hardware address or addresses of the access point}
The trusted networks are stored individually for each user. KNetworkManager stores them and informs NetworkManager about the known, trusted networks. If a wired connection drops due to unplugging the cable NetworkManager will automatically connect to a trusted network. As this step was done without user interaction, NetworkManager will reconnect to the wired connection once it has a carrier.
If a user joins a wireless network by manual intervention (e.g. user clicks on a network listed in the context menu of KNetworkManager or connects to a hidden wireless network), NetworkManager will take down any previous connection. If one unplugs the wired connection after such a step, NetworkManager will not connect to the wired connection once it has a carrier.
Net::Connection::Sniffer 0.13
Net::Connection::Sniffer can gather stats on network connections. more>>
SYNOPSIS
use Net::Connection::Sniffer;
gather($config)
__top
Net::Connection::Sniffer is a perl module to gather connection statistics by listening to ethernet traffic. Traffic is filtered using standard BPF notation as described in the tcpdump documentation and implemented using the standard pcap library to sniff packets on host network interfaces.
network-config 0.1
network-config is a simple network configuration tool. more>>
Network-config is a simple and easy to use program that helps configuring the network interfaces for linux-based operating systems. It allows to have multiple configurations for the same computer and to easy configure NAT for internet sharing.
It can also be used to scan for wireless networks. It is written in perl and uses gtk2+, but also works as a command line program.
Network Ustadi 0.3.1
Network Ustadi is a Web interface for managing network services. more>>
To ease the task of network administration, decrease the likelihood of erronous command execution and to maintain all network services from a central point, EnderUNIX SDT anounces the availability of its 9th open-source tool, netUstad.
The tool, designed and coded by one of our developers Ozkan KIRIK, has the capability to generate FreeBSD IPFW and Linux Iptables rulesets. It has been written in C language and includes its own HTTP server.
The newly anounced version provides a web interface for system administrators to add/delete/update IPFW and Iptables rulesets, manage routing table and network interfaces. You can manage your firewall via a TCP/IP connected remote PC, easily.

POEST::Server 0.20030407
POEST::Server - The Poest Master General. more>>
SYNOPSIS
my $server = POEST::Server->new(
Config => POEST::Config::Genearl,
ConfigFile => /etc/poest.conf,
);
$server->start;
ABSTRACT
This module controls the server itself.
All high-level server interaction happens here.
new()
Create a new server instance. This will not make the server run, but it will configure it, load the modules and configure them, and spawn the proper POE sessions. All the parameters passed to new will be passed directly to the configurator of your choice, as defined by the Config parameter (POEST::Config by default).
run()
Make the server run. This will block execution when called directly.
start()
Fork and start the server. This method will return the pid of the server. If the pidfile configuration parameter is found in the configuration class, an attempt is made to write that pid file. If that attempt fails, or if the pid file already exists, and exception is thrown and the attempt to start the server is stalled.
stop()
Stop the server. If a pidfile was specified, the pid will be read from it. Otherwise, an attempt to find a process name with the value of $0 is tried, by default that is set to poest.
NOTE: As of right this minute, the process table magic isnt written as Proc::ProcessTable isnt ported to Darwin.
Configuration
Thses are the configuration parameters that the server itself needs from the configuration mechanism.
hostname
The main host that this smtp server runs for.
port
The port this server will run on.
plugin
This is a multi-value parameter. Each value is the full name of the module that contains the plugin class.
trafshow+rvnamed 3.0
trafshow+rvnamed combines trafshow (which is a good traffic viewer for networks but is weak in DNS resolving), and iptraf. more>>
This directory contains trafshow source code, a tool for real-time network traffic visualization. Trafshow continuously display the information regarding packet traffic on the configured network interface that match the boolean expression. It periodically sorts and updates this information.
This funny program may be useful for locating suspicious network traffic on
the net or to evaluate current utilization of the network interface. If trafshow has been compiled with modern curses libraries such as Slang or Ncurses it been able to show colored traffic according to your configuration on color-capable terminal.
Trafshow can use variouse ncurses interfaces, a terminal-independent set of screen functions with optimal cursor motion. Trafshow now use libpcap, a system-independent interface for user-level packet capture. Before building trafshow, you must first retrieve and build libpcap, also from LBL, in:
ftp://ftp.ee.lbl.gov/libpcap.tar.Z
Currently trafshow may be compiled with any curses library, but not all of them work with color functions properly. Slang or Ncurses is prefered because it right supports color. Note for termcap users, only the Slang curses is suitable for you. Before building trafshow, you must first retrieve and build one of the
following curses library:
ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/slang/slang0.99-38.tar.gz
or
ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/zm/zmbenhal/ncurses/ncurses-1.9.9g.tar.gz
Once libpcap and libslang is built and installed, you can build trafshow
using the procedure in the INSTALL file. The original distribution is available via anonymous ftp to ftp.nsk.su,
in /pub/unix/trafshow.tar.gz.
Enhancements:
- compiled for i386-pc-bsdi2.0.1 with
- shlicc2 -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -lpcap -lslang -ltermcap
- libpcap library version 0.4a2
- slang curses version 9938
- colors support
