Free serious mass software for linux

mass.pl is the implementation of a relatively simple idea. Instead of interactively doing some task on one machine, then duplicating the effort on N other machines, write a shell script, then scp it to N machines and execute it as root.

Example

(sic@foo)($:~/mass)- ./mass.pl --name solaris --script pushsomething --su --sshpass
sudo password:
ssh password:

trying to run pushsomething on 1 machines

mysqlRadiusd project is a MySQL driven RADIUS daemon.

mysqlRadiusd is a RADIUS daemon based on the 1.6.6 Cistron distribution and the mySQL patches that has been modified for use with the mysqlISP GPL ISP management software system.

It is very stable and can handle large ISPs easily while pumping mass accounting records into mysqlRadacct subsystem at a tremendous rate from even multi-server clusters.

ID3 mass tagger is a portable command-line mass tagger for audio files.
ID3 mass tagger is designed for non-interactively adding, updating or removing meta-information in a number of files with a single command.
It can generate tag fields from the filename and rename files using an intuitive syntax. It currently supports ID3 (1.1) and ID3v2 (2.0, 3.0) tags.
Exemple:
Here are some examples of using id3:
id3 -a "Stallman" -t "Free Software Song" fs_song.mp3"
Add a simple tag to a file.
id3 -d *.mp3
Removes all ID3v1 tags from all mp3s
id3 -g "psych rock" *.mp3
Sets genre to "Psychedelic Rock" all mp3s
id3 -2 -1 -u "*.mp3"
Copy ID3v2 tag to ID3v1 tag in all files.
id3 -a "TAFKAT" -n "%1" -t "%+2" "*. *.mp3"
Update tag fields similar to this;
id3 -a "TAFKAT" -n "01" -t "My Song" "01. my_song.mp3"
id3 -a "TAFKAT" -n "02" -t "Untitled" "02. untitled.mp3"
id3 -2 -f "%a - %t.mp3" blaet.mp3
Rename file to a standard "Artist - Title" format, using ID3v2 values.
id3 -g "alt rock" -a "The Author" -l %1 -n %2 -t %3 "Author - */(*) *.mp3"
Process multiple directories at once.
id3 -g "alt rock" -a "The Author" -m "Author - %l/(%n) %t.mp3"
Shorthand for the previous example.
id3 -a %t -t %a "*.mp3"
Swap artist and title fields in all mp3s.
id3 -D source.mp3 -1 -2 dest.mp3
Copy ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags of source.mp3 to dest.mp3
id3 -D source.mp3 -1u -2u dest.mp3
As above, but only replaces the non-standard or blank fields in dest.mp3 by data from source.mp3.
id3 -2 -rAPIC -s 0 *.mp3
Removes embedded images and padding from all mp3s.
id3 -2 -rAPIC -s 0 -R "*.mp3" "/my documents"
As above, but works recursively on all mp3s in the directory tree starting at /my documents
id3 -2 -q "%| %a - %|Untitled|t || %t || %1 |?" "*.mp3"
Generate a playlist, using the best possible text
id3 -2 -c "Was: %_f" -f "%a - %|Untitled (%#x)|t.mp3" "*.mp3"
Advanced rename. Saves previous filename in the comment field, and renames files without proper tags to;
Unknown - Untitled (01).mp3
Unknown - Untitled (02).mp3
... etc
Enhancements:
- This release adds support for Lyrics3 tags.

Velosurf is a thin but efficient database mapping layer meant to be used with Jakarta Velocity.
Velosurfs goal is to generate a set of context variables that automatically map database tables and relationships without the need for any recompilation.

mod_myuserdir is an Apache 1.3.xx module for dynamically configured mass userdirs with php. All configurations are stored in MySQL database.
- No need to have every user in system userbase (/etc/passwd), no need to restart apache after configuration changed (homedir changed, user [un]blocked...).
- After all, it is capable to change settings of PHP4 dynamically (if php is loadable module or it is linked with apache) for any user. By default, it sets open_basedir as homedir to prevent user from stoling files from other users and from your server, but you have ability to change almost any parameter that exists in php.ini, for example, you can turn on safe_mode or register_globals for particular user, if it has old php scripts that use global variables.

Overflow project is a board game about chain reactions.
Overflow is a board game for two players or one player against the computer. Put pieces on the board until critical mass is reached, and watch a chain reaction go off.
Although the rules are simple, several different tactical considerations are required in order to play the game well.
The name refers to the key principle in the game that each cell on the board can hold a maximum of three units (pieces), and if you add another unit to a filled up cell, the units will be distributed to the four neighbor cells.
Main features:
- Play against the computer or another person
- Advanced hint feature
- Unlimited take backs and redos
- Ugly but scalable graphics
- Selectable colors
