Free ssh client software for linux

Messa is an instant messager client and server. The client has a curses interface and works on the console. Messa supports multilingual messages and private messages.

The server supports monoprocess operation (without threads), the ability to choose the listening port, and the ability to run under the console.

FUSE::Client is a Perl-FUSE client.

SYNOPSIS

use FUSE::Client;
$c = FUSE::Client->new({
Port=>35008,
Quiet=>1,
});

$c->connect();
$c->send("COMMAND","parameter");
$c->disconnect();

The FUSE::Client module will create a TCP FUSE client to test sending messages to a FUSE server.

The external interface to FUSE::Client is:

$c = FUSE::Client->new( [%options] );

The object constructor takes the following arguments in the options hash:

Quiet = 0|1

Whether to be quiet. Default is to report all events to STDOUT (not Quiet).

Port = n

The port for the client to connect to. Default is 1024.

$c->connect();

This method connects the client to the server.

$c->disconnect();

This method disconnects the client from the server.

$c->send( $command, $parameter );

Send a FUSE formatted command message to the server, with the specified parameter.

SSH Filesystem is a filesystem client based on the SSH File Transfer Protocol. Since most SSH servers already support this protocol it is very easy to set up: i.e. on the server side theres nothing to do. On the client side mounting the filesystem is as easy as logging into the server with ssh.
The idea of sshfs was taken from the SSHFS filesystem distributed with LUFS, which I found very useful. There were some limitations of that codebase, so I rewrote it.
Main features:
- Based on FUSE (the best userspace filesystem framework for linux ;-)
- Multithreading: more than one request can be on its way to the server
- Allowing large reads (max 64k)
- Caching directory contents
Installing
First you need to download FUSE 2.2 or later from http://fuse.sourceforge.net/. You also need to install the devel package for glib2.0. After installing FUSE, compile sshfs the usual way:
./configure
make
make install (as root)
How to mount a filesystem
Once sshfs is installed (see next section) running it is very simple:
sshfs hostname: /mountpoint
Note, that its recommended to run it as user, not as root. For this to work the mountpoint must be owned by the user. If the username is different on the host you are connecting to, then use the "username@host:" form. If you need to enter a password sshfs will ask for it (actually it just runs ssh which ask for the password if needed). You can also specify a directory after the ":". The default is the home directory.
Enhancements:
- This release fixes a couple of rarely occurring crashes and some smaller bugs.

SMM++ Mud Client project is a client with mapping functionality and lots of other features.
SMM++ Mud Client is a mud client with extended and unique features.
Aside from all standard mud client functionality like ANSI color support, aliases, action triggers, and tab-completion, SMM++ features a highly-customizable user interface (labels, buttons, and menus) and unique and powerful mapping capabilities, and SMM++ is the only mapping crossplatform (Tcl/Tk based) mud client available.
Enhancements:
- ::smm::action replaced with ::smm::reaction (pretty stable)
Added:
- ::smm::pasteok hook (not tested extensively, yet)

Perl MUD Client project is a text-based MUD client supporting SSL, ANSI, telnet negotations, and MCP.

PMC is a text based mudclient written in Perl 5. It utilizes GNU readline, supports SSL, local editing support through MCP (MudClientProtocol), full telnet negotiation support and of course ANSI support if your terminal supports it.

Unlike other mudclients with input line editors/history, it also supports the telnet character mode, which enables it to use e.g. fullscreen applications within a mud (like the xeditor found on some LP Muds).

Net::Nessus::Client is a Nessus client module.

SYNOPSIS

# Connect to the Nessus Server
require Net::Nessus::Client;
my $client = Net::Nessus::Client->new(host => localhost,
port => 1241,
user => joe,
password => my_password);

The Nessus program is a Client/Server application offering a framework for lots of security related scanners, so-called plugins. The idea is not to create a separate scanner for any possible security hole, but to reimplement only the most important parts and let the Nessus Server (nessusd) do the most part of the work.
Clients are typically available as GUI applications, for example based on the GTK (nessus), Java or Win32 applications. This module is another Nessus client written in Perl, but without GUI.

You start using the module by opening a connection to a Nessus Server: This will create a Nessus client object for you. This object offers methods that you can later use, for example retrieving the list of available plugins, start a scan, set preferences and so on.

SOAP::XML::Client is a simple frame work for talking with web services.

This package is the base class for talking with web services, there are specific modules to use depending on the type of service you are calling, e.g. SOAP::XML::Client::DotNet or SOAP::XML::Client::Generic

This package helps in talking with web services, it just needs a bit of XML thrown at it and you get some XML back. Its designed to be REALLY simple to use.
