Free work at home software for linux

Aero AIO: Folding@Home is a plugin for Aero AIO to monitor your Folding@Home client. It comes with a simple configuration dialog to set the update interval and client path.

It was inspired by navyrains folding-karamba theme.

Folding@Home is a distributed computing project to understand protein folding, misfolding and related diseases (http://folding.stanford.edu).

Sporktris is a clone of Tetris-clones. It is meant to be fun, functional, and pretty, with as little annoyance as possible.
Technical details: Sporktris is written in C++, using SDL for graphics and input (for easy portability). It requires SDL, SDL_image and SDL_ttf to build.
This project is Free Software released under the GPL. However, donations are greatly appreciated.
Main features:
- Customizable keys
- Nifty level backgrounds, and coloured pieces to go with them
- Highscores
- Cross-platform (works on at least Mac OS X, Windows and Linux)
- Its own key repeat system (allows for holding down two keys at once, among other things)
- Automatically pauses when it isnt in front
- Will not cause a raccoon infestation in your home or work place
- Handy Features list

RitmarkFS is an open source filesystem storage engine for MySQL server. Using this engine you can work with filesystem on the server with SQL queries and MySQL server interface.RitmarkFS is also possible to access raw file contents.

RitmarkFS allows you to access common file attributes such as name, extension, path, size.

To start using RitmarkFS storage engine you have to create a special table.

Table name specifies filesystem mount point. I.e all data under that mount point will be accessible by the specified table name. In the examples above these were c:ritmarktest and /home/your_home_dir respectively. For example if you run a query like

SELECT * FROM `c$$ritmarktest`;

the query result will contain records corresponding to all files under c:ritmarktest recursively.

File::Save::Home is a Perl module to place file safely under user home directory.

SYNOPSIS

use File::Save::Home qw(
get_home_directory
get_subhome_directory_status
make_subhome_directory
restore_subhome_directory_status
conceal_target_file
reveal_target_file
make_subhome_temp_directory
);

$home_dir = get_home_directory();

$desired_dir_ref = get_subhome_directory_status("desired/directory");

$desired_dir_ref = get_subhome_directory_status(
"desired/directory",
"pseudohome/directory", # two-argument version
);

$desired_dir = make_subhome_directory($desired_dir_ref);

restore_subhome_directory_status($desired_dir_ref);

$target_ref = conceal_target_file( {
dir => $desired_dir,
file => file_to_be_checked,
test => 0,
} );

reveal_target_file($target_ref);

$tmpdir = make_subhome_temp_directory();

$tmpdir = make_subhome_temp_directory(
"pseudohome/directory", # optional argument version
);

In the course of deploying an application on another users system, you sometimes need to place a file in or underneath that users home directory. Can you do so safely?

This Perl extension provides several functions which try to determine whether you can, indeed, safely create directories and files underneath a users home directory. Among other things, if you are placing a file in such a location only temporarily -- say, for testing purposes -- you can temporarily hide any already existing file with the same name and restore it to its original name and timestamps when you are done.

PyMusicD is yet another jukebox daemon written in python. It was born out of my frustration with the current mp3 jukeboxes, mostly the lack of features that I want. Ive also been playing with python quite a lot lately, and this is my first attempt at a large project in python.
The player is being written to satisfy my own requirements for a car mp3 player, although theres no reason you couldnt use this for a home mp3 player, or work mp3 player.
It assumes that your network users are (mostly) benign, and doesnt take a lot of precautions against malicious users who want to screw with your mp3s. Take appropriate measures to only allow trusted users to play with it, at least until I secure it a bit better.
Its primary purpose is to run in the background, and play mp3s whenever they are in the playlist.
Usage
Unpack this to its own directory. Edit the pymusicd.conf file to your liking. Run python PyMusicD, then run python pymusic to play around with it. The client operates very similarly to most shells, and includes tab completion for commands (but not arguments... yet.)
If you wish to install this to the system, you may do so by running python setup.py install. This will install the server binary in the default place for your platform (according to distutils.) You may then edit the config file (/etc/pymusicd.conf by default) and run the server by running PyMusicD. The cli client will be named pymusic.
This software is currently in development. It is not ready for end users yet. You should have familiarity with scripting in python before you set about to use this software. That being said, if you find bugs that arent listed in TODO, and/or have problems with the software that arent listed in TODO, email me (zwhite@darkstar.frop.org) and Ill see what I can do to help you. Code patches/suggestions are always welcome.
This is known to work on my Slackware 9.0 machine using the Python 2.2.2 package that came with it. I have also tested it on my Mac OSX 10.2.8 machine with Python 2.2. I have no reason to believe that it wont work on any machine with a Python 2.x interpreter and
either mpg123 or mpg321. Your mileage may vary. If it doesnt work on your platform, please let me know. My goal is to have this work on any platform that python runs on.
Enhancements:
- Fixed a bug when adding an entire directory with %2A instead of *
- Added a debug command to get server state, currently only playstatus is reported, will add more as needed.
- Changed the way the stop command works to eliminate a bug.
- Check to make sure a file exists before we add it to the playlist.
- We no longer start playing music as soon as the playlist has entries.
- Instead, we wait for a play command to be issued.
- Added config file support. Defaults to /etc/pymusicd.conf or ./pymusicd.conf
- Added a setup.py and setup.cfg file. Now users can install PyMusicD using the standard "python setup.py install" method that other scripts and modules use.

Script for a dual-homed firewall script is intended to setup a masquerading firewall based on the IPTABLES (Net)filter-machanism of Linux 2.3.15+
Syslogging matches fireparse for graphical output (see http://www.fireparse.com)
Normally this script will work out-of-the-box, but you should adapt it to your own needs (At least you should set the correct default interfaces --> see Default-Interfaces section)
Syntax to invoke script: firewall (start|stop|restart|status) EXTIF INTIF
Example: "firewall start ppp0 eth0"
Enhancements:
- Added a few comments
