[001] - ACLbit 1.0.30
by Pavel Hloušek (http://freshmeat.net/users/pu_medvidek/)
Tue, Apr 29th 2008 09:45



About: ACLbit is a command line tool to backup and restore POSIX ACLs on
Linux file systems. The tool uses its backup database to inspect ACLs. The

the life of sysadmins easier when finding out current access rights of a
particular user when ACLs are in use, especially on systems with
tens/hundreds of thousands of inodes. ACLbit is tool to backup ACLs only.
It is not an archiver, so it does not backup the files themselves.

minute on any OS that supports virtualization.

Changes: The cacti logfile is now rotated weekly. The spine poller is now
included. PHP settings were customized to better accomodate cacti. MySQL
binlogs are now disabled at the JumpBox platform level, which will keep
cacti from filling up the root disk for users with many graphs. Cacti was
updated to version 0.8.7b.

Tue, Apr 29th 2008 03:40

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers

About: KLone is a fully-featured, multi-platform framework which allows
dynamic Web pages to be written in C/C++ (with the usual <% code %>
style). The pages can then be embedded (in compressed and/or encrypted
form) into a single executable that also contains KLone's high-performance
HTTP/S server. Given its nature, it can be linked natively to any C/C++
library (database, XML, graphics, etc.), without an intermediate layer,
and it is especially suited for low-resource (embedded) systems.

Changes: passwd-like authentication and a TLS PSK interface were added.
GET and POST variables can now be accessed independently. A buffer
overflow was fixed along with some minor issues.

[041] - Object Shell 0.9.3
by geophile (http://freshmeat.net/users/geophile/)
Tue, Apr 29th 2008 13:22

Utilities

About: Object Shell (osh) is a tool that integrates the processing of
structured data, database access, and remote access to a cluster of nodes.
These capabilities are made available through a command-line interface
(CLI) and a Python application programming interface (API). Osh processes
streams of Python objects using simple commands. Complex data processing
is achieved by command sequences in which the output from one command is
passed to the input of the next. This is similar to composing Unix
commands using pipes, but not limited to passing strings.

Changes: Bugfixes. This is probably the last version before version 1.0,
which will have major improvements, and will not be backward-compatible
for remote command execution.

System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring

About: phpLogCon is a Web front-end for syslog and other network event
data. It provides easy browsing and some basic analysis. Network events
are taken from a database, where they must be stored by a feeding
application (not part of phpLogCon itself). Depending on database

and some more exotic things. It works together with rsyslogd, an enhanced
syslog deamon but can also team up with any other application capable of
writing to a database.

Changes: The syslog sample log file was removed from samplelogs. A minor
issue was fixed in the installer. A bug where
logstreamlineparsersyslog.class failed to parse some rsyslog log lines was
fixed. Special characters like German umlauts are now properly replaced. A
link was added to a help page on the rsyslog wiki. The database layout was
changed from winsyslog to monitorware. More debug handling was added.

Database
Software Development
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: SqlBuilder is a library that attempts to take the pain out of
generating SQL queries within Java programs. It wraps the SQL syntax
within very lightweight and easy to use Java objects that follow the
"builder" paradigm (similar to StringBuilder). This changes many common
SQL syntactical, runtime errors into Java compile-time errors.

Changes: The way that state is maintained during query validation was
changed. The ValidationContext is used instead of a few collections in
order to enable more complicated subquery handling. This change allows
subqueries to be validated correctly and opens the door for sub-clause
validation.

Multimedia :: Video

Multimedia :: Video :: Display

About: ZoneMinder is a suite of applications intended for use in video
camera security applications, including theft prevention and child or
family member monitoring. It supports capture, analysis, recording, and
monitoring of video data coming from one or more video or network cameras
attached to a Linux system. It also features a user-friendly Web interface
which allows viewing, archival, review, and deletion of images and movies
captured by the cameras. The image analysis system is highly configurable,
permitting retention of specific events, while eliminating false positives.
ZoneMinder supports both directly connected and network cameras and is
built around the definition of a set of individual 'zones' of varying
sensitivity and functionality for each camera. This allows the elimination
of regions which should be ignored or the definition of areas which will
alarm if various thresholds are exceeded in conjunction with other zones.
All management, control, and other functions are supported through the Web
interface.

Changes: This release contains an important security fix as well as a
number of other minor fixes and features. It is recommended that this
update be applied at the earliest opportunity. A patch containing the
security fix is available from the Patches section of the Wiki. This patch
can be applied to systems installed from an RPM or other packages.
