Yet another Linux FAQ is a comprehensive FAQ about the Linux Operating System. Yet another Linux FAQ is a great document for Linux beginners to read.
This FAQ tries to help those new to Linux help themselves. It covers topics such as kernel recompilation and X Window System configuration.
Enhancements:
- The FAQ was completely redesigned, and dead links were cleaned up.

Yet Another Filter Proxy project is a preforking, banner filtering, content scanning Perl proxy.



Yet Another Filter Proxy is a proxy to filter out advertising banners and malicious script code from web sites. It is written in Perl and based on an example by Randal L. Schwartz.

For performance reasons it uses preforking to spawn several processes of itself (like Apache does).

Unlike other available proxies (such as Junkbuster), it does blocking by Perl regular expressions on the site content, which allows you to block JavaScript and popups, in addition to normal ads.

Run perldoc yafp.pl for full readme!

Yet Another RSS Reader provides a RSS aggregator and reader that displays its results in the system tray.

Yet Another RSS Reader is an RSS aggregator and reader that displays its results in the GNOME notification area. To view the contents of the feed just click the menu-item and it will launch in your favorite browser. It is written in Perl and uses gtk2-perl for its interface.

Yet Another Dungeon-game is a maze (or dungeon) game with a flexible text-based map format and interface plugins.
Installation:
yad/ $ ./configure
yad/ $ make
(as per usual)
Now, to run it --
The environment variable YAD_MODULES needs to point to the full path of interface/.libs in the
root source folder.
For example, I (developer) would use
yad/ $ export YAD_MODULES="/home/dustin/c/yad/interface/.libs"
cd to src, and run ./yad with a map file (currently, neat.map is the test map, neat.map links to woot.map, and vice-versa.)
src/ $ ./yad neat.map
Enhancements:
- The libltdl dependency was removed from the configure script.

Yet Another Financial Manager (YAFM in short) is application to track Your expenses and incomes. That way You know how much and for what You are spending, and if You are in line with retirement savings. All made in EASY and COMFORTABLE way.

The Difference

There are many programs to help manage Your finances.

So, why You should use YAFM?

First it is designed to be easy to use. It is not aimed to track every penny You spend, this would be annoying.

Second: it should be used as a tool to track spendings as exactly as You need. Don’t be stressed if some expences are not tracked or You have entered their approx value. YAFM is about helping You to know roughly how much and for what You are spending not making You feel bad, that expenses and incomes are not balanced up to penny. If You have enough patience to keep data 100% accurate - You will have very accurate results, good for You, but YAFM will not make troubles about coffee and doughnut this morning, You have forgot to enter.

YAFM BETA is free software, but version 1.0 will be commercial software. If You decide to donate me some money I promise You to get free 1.0 license. You can donate any amount, but if You would ask me how much I would say - 10 USD (1.0 pricing is not fixed but price will be somewhere between 10 and 20 USD).

This application is powered with Ruby on Rails and operated with browser locally. You need to have Ruby interpreter and sqlite installed. This means it can be run in Windows, Unix/Linux or Mac OS X environments.

For Windows (which I expect be to main platform for most users) there are sqlite .dlls provided with program.

Well… I’m using this program for myself from April 2006. I think for many people program like YAFM will be useful, so I decided give a try to release. Of course I’m releasing much more polished version than I use everyday, and also with much features missing. But I will successfully release next versions.

Yet Another Object Request Broker is an implementation of the CORBA ORB.
YaOrb advanced installation
YaOrb uses the GNU tools (Autoconf, Automake, ...).
See the GNU documentation for complete instructions, in file $/INSTALL.GNU.
Optional features
The configure script also supports package specific options :
-enable-yoconf=DEV : build in "Development" configuration
-enable-yoconf=TCOV : build in "Coverage" configuration
-enable-yoconf=GPROF : build in "Profiling" configuration
These options are private for the maintainer of this package, and will only work in a specific environment (since assumptions are made about which compiler is used, ...). You may try them, but dont need them to make a build.
The "DEV" (Development) configuration is used to perform a build with all the possible warning options turned on, and warnings are considered errors (using gcc with -Wall -Werror). This configuration is used to enforce that the code is as clean as possible.
The "TCOV" (Coverage) configuration is used to collect code coverage statistics, and also depend on gcc. After running tests, use make profiling to collect code coverage, and read the resulting files :
- $/.SCORE
- $/.MISSING
The "GPROF" (Profiling) configuration is used to collect performance data, and relies on specific gcc options and gprof. After running tests, use make profiling to collect statistics generated.
Enhancements:
- First public release of Yet Another Object Request Broker. Pre alpha, release 0.2

Yet Another antiVirus Recipe is a procmail that helps to filter out a lot of the most common e-mail worms.
For some of the above (plain iframe, clsid, xml, macro) e-mail is delivered normally but gets a WARNING in subject plus its old subject ($SUB).
Some of the warnings are:
WARNING-XML-CODEBASE-OBJECT-$SUB
WARNING-CLSID-EXTENSION-$SUB
WARNING-IFRAME-$SUB
WARNING-MACRO-$SUB
WARNING-NSCAM-SCORE:$NKNGS-$SUB
Main features:
- :: base64 signatures ::
- Most of these worms are MS-Windows executables and arrive at our e-mail encoded through base64 routines. YAVR uses especially selected signatures to locate these attachments. After that it places them in a directory (/virus/) sorted by name.
-
- :: iframe html exploit ::
- Through IFrame tag a html encoded e-mail can download and execute a file from a remote http site without informing the user.
-
- :: CLSID hidden extensions exploit ::
- Attachments which end with a Class ID (CLSID) file extension do not show the actual file extension saved and viewed with Windows Explorer. This allows dangerous file types to look as though they are actually innocent files, such as JPG or WAV files.
-
- :: xml codebase exploit ::
- Usage of some xml objects allow local files to be automatically executed, regardless of the security settings on the target machine.
-
- :: generic executable trap for bat, pif, vbs, vba, scr, lnk, com, exe ::
- The rest of MS-executable files that are not caught from base64 signatures end up in a virus-could-be file.
-
- :: generic macro detection for doc,dot,xls,xla files ::
- MS-Word and MS-Excel files that contain macro commands are marked with a warning.
-
- :: generic detection for most of nigeria scam e-mails (most of them) ::
- Nigeria scam e-mail is not a virus but a big spam problem... There are many good filters that use great algorithms for spam. This is just an add-on.
Enhancements:
- new switches for quarantine or not certain e-mailsbased on some ideas by Dan Smart
- YAVRQUARANTEXE if set to ON it sends unknown executables to /virus/virus-could-be as usual if set to OFF it delivers at inbox with a warning (and the X- header ;)
- YAVRQUARANTNIG same for nigeria scam
- YAVRQUARANTPRN same for porn e-mail read instuctions inside nkvir-rc
- X- marks in headers to help your own procmail scripts
- X-YAVR: MS-EXEC (any MS executable that wasnt identified by signatures)
- X-YAVR: NIGERIA (nigeria scam)
- X-YAVR: PORN (porn related)
- X-YAVR: MACRO (containing macro code)
- X-YAVR: XML-CODEBASE
- X-YAVR: IFRAME
- X-YAVR: CLSID-EXTENSION
- X-YAVR: SENDMAIL-EXPLOIT
- some more Worm.Moodown.b aka Netsky.b signatures
- another Mimail.Q
