Ever wonder why HP has seven consecutive years of Linux market share
leadership? Maybe it's our portfolio of best-of-breed partner products, or
HP value-add in management, high availability, and virtualization. Maybe
it's the integrated, consolidated infrastructure of HP BladeSystem,
single-source accountability and solution support from HP Services in 160
countries, or just our unwavering commitment to the open source community.

Mon, Oct 23rd 2006 00:42
System :: Benchmark
System :: Filesystems
About: fio is an I/O tool meant to be used both for benchmark and
stress/hardware verification. It has support for 6 different types of I/O
engines (sync, mmap, libaio, posixaio, SG v3, splice), I/O priorities (for
newer Linux kernels), rate I/O, forked or threaded jobs, and much more. It
can work on block devices as well as files. fio accepts job descriptions
in a simple-to-understand text format. Several example job files are
included. fio displays all sorts of I/O performance information, such as
completion and submission latencies (avg/mean/deviation), bandwidth stats,
CPU, and disk utilization, and more. It supports Linux, FreeBSD, and
OpenSolaris.
Changes: Basic support was added for a CPU cycler eater job. Splice
compile problems on newer Linux versions were fixed. IO engines were
seperated into loadable modules to support out-of-tree engines. More than
one file per thread/process is supported. The main file was split up into
more helper files. IO verification was improved. The -l/-w latency and
bandwidth log options were added as configuration entries. This version

added, but are yet untested. Exe$nampid now does privilege checking. Bliss
bug fixes are noted in the Bliss HOWTO. System service dclast did not set
access mode. In i386, PAL was missing user mode in PSL when going to user
mode.

[060] - RPL/2 4.00pre8q (Development)
by JKB (http://freshmeat.net/users/jkb/)
Mon, Oct 23rd 2006 11:16
Scientific/Engineering :: Mathematics
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: RPL/2 (Reverse Polish Lisp/2) is a langage derived from the RPL
made by Hewlett-Packard for its HP-28S. It has some extensions
(preprocessor, compilated libraries, new functions), a TeX output, and can
draw graphics.
Changes: WFPROC was rewritten to avoid a deadlock. A major mistake was
fixed in both sommation_vecteur_reel() and sommation_vecteur_complexe().
Multitasking was rewritten from scratch to fix some mistakes with
multithreading. DETACH, SEND, and RECV now use four real time signals to
perform a better task synchronization. Some bugs introduced by locale
specific compilations were fixed. Major memory corruption was fixed in
DEPND. The HELP intrinsic was modified to print a classified output.

[063] - Seed7 2006-10-23
by Thomas Mertes (http://freshmeat.net/users/thomas_mertes/)
Mon, Oct 23rd 2006 13:45
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: Seed7 is a general purpose programming language. It is a higher
level language compared to Ada, C++, and Java. In Seed7, new statements
and operators can be declared easily. Functions with type results and type
parameters are more elegant than a template or generics concept. Object
orientation is used when it brings advantages and not in places when other
solutions are more obvious. Although Seed7 contains several concepts of
other programming languages, it is generally not considered as a direct
descendant of any other programming language.
Changes: The bigInteger library was improved to support modulo, power and
several comparisons (<, >, <=, and >=). Test cases for incr, decr, modulo,
power, and compare were added to the chkbig.sd7 program. The compiler was
improved to support the new bigInteger functionality.

Information Management :: Issue Tracking
Information Management :: Records Management
Internet :: Log Analysis
About: Splunk organizes and makes sense of any type of machine data,
including Web servers, application servers, email servers, databases, and
network devices. It uses algorithms that dynamically discover event
relationships across diverse domains of machine data and build a
searchable Web of events to trace the real behavior of running systems. A
Splunk server can optionally work with Splunk.com, allowing users in
different organizations to participate in a global troubleshooting
community and share knowledge about common events and problems while
preserving data privacy.
Changes: Distributed search: users can now search across multiple Splunk
servers from a single Web or command line interface. A simplified
configuration format: name-value pairs in stanzas replace the old XML
structures to configure. Hosts can be tagged. Major indexing and search
performance improvements, and splunk indexes now take up 40% less disk
space. Data can be deleted from the index.

[068] - SSLBridge 1.4
by jkern (http://freshmeat.net/users/jkern/)
Mon, Oct 23rd 2006 11:10
Information Management :: Document Repositories
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
About: SSLBridge is a Samba AJAX enabled Web client that enables users to
access files and folders located on a local company network from locations
outside of the physical office and network. Users can login from home to
access shared folders on their computer and other servers on the company
network without any client software installed on their home machine.
Changes: A small problem with moving files from a folder to another that
has an apostrophe in its name has been fixed. The -B parameter has been
added to nmblookup. A special character that was used in IE to avoid
loading an extra graphic has been removed, because it caused non-English
character sets to not load properly. An error in Mac OS Firefox browsers
that would make downloads start twice has been fixed. Pattern matching for
Workgroups has been fixed: it will match for Workgroups that have one or
more spaces in their names.

[069] - strongSwan 2.8.0
by Andreas Steffen (http://freshmeat.net/users/asteffen/)
Mon, Oct 23rd 2006 00:18
Security
Security :: Cryptography
System :: Networking
About: strongSwan is a complete IPsec and IKEv1 implementation for Linux
2.4 and 2.6 kernels. It interoperates with most other IPsec-based VPN
products. It is a descendant of the discontinued FreeS/WAN project. The
focus of the strongSwan project is on strong authentication mechanisms
using X.509 public key certificates and optional secure storage of private
keys on smartcards through a standardized PKCS#11 interface. A unique
feature is the use of X.509 attribute certificates to implement advanced
access control schemes based on group memberships.
Changes: The implementation of the IKE Mode Config push mode allows
interoperability with Cisco VPN gateways. By setting "modeconfig=push",
strongSwan will wait for the peer to push down a virtual IP address that
can be used within an IPsec tunnel. The default value of the new keyword
is "modeconfig=pull". The command "ipsec statusall" now shows "DPD active"
for all ISAKMP Security Associations that are under active Dead Peer
Detection control.

interface.
Changes: This release adds automatic recognition of repository structure
(TRUNK, BRANCHES, TAGS) instead of the current static layout. It adds a
feature to respect the project repository layout in the "Create Branch"
and "Create Tag" operations. Files are compared on double-click in commit
and revert dialogs. Text and property statuses are shown separately in the
resource selection dialog. Validation has been added to the comment view of
the "Problem Report" and "Tip for Improvement" dialogs. A few bugs were
fixed.

[085] - zeroer 0.1

Mon, Oct 23rd 2006 18:47
Security
System
System :: Filesystems
About: The zeroer utility can be used to wipe empty space on a disk. In
contrary to dd, zeroer does not wipe existing files on a partition. It
overwrites the unallocated disk spa ce around existing files, which means
that deleted files cannot be restored after processing a certain partition
with zeroer. The utility's principle consists in writing huge zero-padded
memory blocks to a file. To a certain extent, this works similar to dd,
but zeroer dynamically reduces the blockwriter's buffer size when the
filesystem is going to be full.
