Free redirects software for linux

Redirex is a small, lightweight Perl server which intercepts HTTP requests sent to the old address and redirects them to the sites new home. Handy when you change the IP address of a Web server and discover that, months later, requests still rain in from search engines and other sites which have linked to the absolute IP address rather than your site name.

There are few better ways to appreciate the breadth of the Web and the depth of its content as to move a Web server from one machine to another with a different IP address. Whatever the reason motivating the change, youll quickly discover that requests continue to rain onto the obsolete server, diminishing ever so slowly only as other webmasters discover and correct broken links to your site, and search engines eventually discover the change and re-index your site at its new location. Redirex is a utility which can smooth the transition of a Web site from one server to another, both for users of the site and its administrators. Redirex is a Perl program which receives requests at the address of the old server and responds with HTTP "redirect" (301 status code) replies indicating the new servers name.

To install and configure Redirex, you have to do the following steps:

1. Download the Redirex source archive and extract its contents into a new directory. The archive contains redirex, the main Perl script and redirex.conf, its configuration file.

2. Edit redirex.conf and set the configuration variables appropriately for your application. The configuration variables are discussed in detail below.

3. (Optional) Test Redirex by running it on a user port (for example, 9080), then accessing it from your Web browser with a URL like: "http://my.hostname.net:9080/whatever.html". Verify that the request was redirected as specified by the configuration file.

4. Install Redirex on the old server, configured to listen to the port (usually 80) on which that server used to accept HTTP requests. If the old server no longer exists, configure a different machine to respond to the old servers IP address, perhaps using "IP aliases" or "logical interfaces" to make an existing machine respond to the old servers address. This is discussed in more detail below in the "Virtual Host Setup" section.

5. Verify that Redirex is correctly redirecting requests to the old server and writing log items to the configured file.

Deadmans Redirect (DMR) is designed to replace whatever it is your browser loads when you click on the Home button in your browser.
DMR is a web-surfers power tool that can be completely customized to fit the needs of the user, without being tied to a specific instance of a browser.
DMR users can create/use aliases to their favorite search engines, drop in URLs for redirection, search through the history of all URLs/commands that have been entered into DMR, make small reminders/notes, and edit the powerful template system used by DMR.
DMR templates are called Views. Views use regular HTML with some DMR-specific keywords to define how DMR looks when your browser renders it.
The View system has support for RDF headlines from your favorite site(s), seperate listings of notes, aliases, views and history, and even a fortune (UNIX fortune must be installed.)
Main features:
- Shell-like history functions
- User defined automatic history exclusion
- Shell-like aliasing with arguments
- RDF/RSS headlines
- Completely customizable interface
- Example aliases act as a front-end to various search engines

sslredir is a simple utility used for redirecting incoming non-SSL connections to outgoing SSL connections.

sslredir project is useful for enabling applications such as mail, news, or IRC clients, which do not support SSL, to connect to SSL servers. It also supports connecting to the remote host through a SOCKS4A proxy, so sslredir is ideal for use with Tor.

sslredir is similar to stunnel or socat, except that it is not as general-purpose as socat. It uses less than 450 lines of Python, so it is simple to audit (although it does rely on M2Crypto which relies on OpenSSL, both of which are rather more difficult to audit). sslredir is also designed to work nicely with Tor, whereas I had run into bugs with both socat and stunnel.

OpenDomains is a Web application that will help you provide a domain redirection service. It is easy to install and use. It allows other people to register for subdomains in your own domain.

The subdomain will then redirect visitors to a site of the users choice. OpenDomains features URL cloaking, path forwarding, meta tag support, and detailed statistics.

RCUNIT is a robust C unit testing framework. Requiring only an ANSI compliant C compiler, It is a highly portable testing tool.
Main features:
- Uniform interfaces for managing test cases
- Optional setup and tear down functions for each test case (test function) to isolate a particular test.
- Optional setup and tear down functions for each test suite (test module).
- Multiple test registries and test suites for structuring test cases. Also provides a default test suite and default test registry.
- Output redirection mechanism to redirect log and test run report when a file I/O facility is not available in the test platform.
- Log handler mechanism for redirecting logs.
- Allows optional test run callback function (test run hook).
- Alternative mechanism to ANSI Cs assert() function (non-test run assertions). Also allows assertion callback function (assertion hook)
- A runtime memory leak check facility
- An extensible exception handling mechanism
Enhancements:
- This is is the pre-release version of 1.0.
- There were no major changes from version 0.1, and it is fairly stable.

Large Database Backup is a PHP class can be used to backup large MySQL databases into multiple files.

It can list the tables of a given MySQL database and generate SQL statements to create and insert records with the current values of the table rows, as if it was creating a new database. The class stores the generated SQL statements in files.

A full backup process can be split in multiple iterations to not exceed PHP default script execution time limit. Each iteration dumps a limited number of table rows. An iteration can be executed by a script that redirects the page request to itself at the end to proceed to the next iteration.

inetrd provides a redirection super server.
inetrd is a super server like inetd (i.e., it listens on many ports).
Clients connecting can then be redirected to other ports or servers in various ways.
Enhancements:
- Whitespace cleanups.
- Support ; as comment char in ini file.
- Fixed up RPM. rpmbuild -ta inetrd-0.0.3.tar.gz to build rpm.
