Date: Tue,  7 Nov 2000 20:05:01 GMT

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====


I have just released Leafwa version 0.4.3.

Leafwa is a web-based administration package for Leafnode
(Leafnode is a small Usenet news server, designed for "leaf 
nodes" - sites that only exchange news with one other site). 

Leafwa allows the user to view which newsgroups Leafnode is
reading news from, to manually subscribe to and unsubscribe
from newsgroups, and to view and edit the list of unsent
messages waiting to be uploaded to the remote news server. 

New features in 0.4.3:
 
   * New default for monospacing of messages in news queue 
   * Displays Leafnode version number 
   * Various bugs fixed; code tidied up 
   * Tested with PHP 4.0.2, Leafnode 2.0b1 (beta release 1) 

Leafwa is available from:
   http://www.vision25.demon.co.uk/oss/leafwa/intro.html
   
Leafwa is licenced under the GNU GPL.

Apologies for cross-postings.

The Software Group of UCISA are organising a one-day seminar on 'A
Buyer's Guide to free Unix and Applications' in Oxford on 6 December.

With increasing use being made of different varieties of free and
Public Domain Unix (such as FreeBSD and Linux) and applications such
as StarOffice, this seminar will discuss some varieties of Unix and
applications that are freely available. It also includes discussion of
the viability of providing a professional desktop environment on Linux
and examples of high-availability services, such as web services,
built on Linux.

Visit http://www.ucisa.ac.uk/SG/events/dec_2000.htm for more details,
the program and the on-line booking form for this event.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Subject: TCFS 3.0 - Transparent Cryptographic Network File System
Date: Tue,  7 Nov 2000 20:10:09 GMT

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====


The long awaited 3.0 release of TCFS is arrived.
TCFS 3.0 is a major new version of TCFS featuring:

* data integrity check
(present in this ALPHA version)
Each block of an encrypted file is now checked for its integrity before passing
the clean data to the requesting application.

* improved modules support
(present in this ALPHA version)
You can choice which cipher to use to encrypt a single file or a directory.
If a directory is encrypted with a particular cipher then each of the files
created in it will be encrypted with the same cipher, unless you decide
differently.

* improved TCFS-aware application support
(planned, will be present in the stable release)
With the use of a TCFS header at the beginning of each encrypted file,
TCFS itself is now able to fully support a TCFS-aware application.
If the application need to store some additional file information,
TCFS can now do this in a secure manner.

* linux kernel version 2.2.x support
This release of TCFS works only with the Linux kernel version 2.2
(the stable release of TCFS will compile on the upcoming kernel version 2.4).

* kerberos support
(planned, will be present in the 3.0 stable branch)</font>
The TCFS library will support the Kerberos authentication service.

ATTENTION!!!!
This is an alpha version. Its use is STRONGLY DISCOURAGED unless you are
a kernel developer and are very sure of what you are doing with it! Be very
carefull, however, when using it.

What is TCFS?

TCFS is a Transparent Crptographic Network File System featuring group sharing
of encrypted files. Thanks to a deeper integration between the encryption
service and the file system, TCFS results in a complete transparency to the
user.
TCFS will encrypt your files before sending them to the file server and will
decrypt them before they are read by the over running application.
Because the encryption/decryption proces takes place on the client host, no
clean data will travel the network. This is particularly valid for the
encrption key.

TCFS is developed at the Dipartimento di Informatica ed Applicazione
"R. Capocelli" of the Universita' degli Studi di Salerno (Italy) and works
either on the Linux OS or the *BSD OSes.

Date: Tue,  7 Nov 2000 21:24:10 GMT

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====


Announcing the release of version 0.2 of the
"Advanced-Bash-Scripting-HOWTO". This update contains several bugfixes and a
great deal of new information, including 18 new example scripts (for a total
of 97, count 'em, profusely commented illustrative examples, not counting all
the other code snippets).

This HOWTO serves as both a reference and a tutorial. It begins with the
basics of shell scripting, but rapidly progresses to advanced topics.

It is released in both SGML and HTML formats (tar-gzipped into a single
package on the secondary site). This release 0.2 is about half the length of a
complete book, and I hope it will eventually evolve into a full, book-length
"LDP Guide". At some point, print publication (are you listening, Tim
O'Reilly?) might be nice.

I am open to accepting volunteer collaborators for future update of this
HOWTO, and am also considering the possibility of having it hosted on Source
Forge.

Subject: RadioActive 1.0 "Fly me to the GNOME"
Date: Tue,  7 Nov 2000 21:26:24 GMT

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====


Dear users of fiendish C++ technologies to listen to the radio,

A new release of RadioActive is available at
- -->   http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/radioactive/              <--

It fixes the rough edges of 0.11, and introduces several user interface
enhancements, most of them inspired by Stanislav Brabec <utx@penguin.cz>.
As you can guess from the code name, this is the release I intend
GNOME-Extras 1.4 to include.

No cute fuzzy animals were harmed (or helped) in the making of this
release.

Detailed list of changes:

         * Mute state is changed across runs - actually, this should
           have been implemented much sooner, it somehow escaped me.
         * The panel applet skips empty channels when cycling
         * Both the tuner buttons and the applet channel buttons have
           auto-repeat (just hold down the mouse button)
         * You can change the value of fine-tuning
         * The number of preset channels can be changed
         * If you turn off saving of the window position, it discards
           the old value (useful for corrupted position values on big
           screens)
         * Bug fix: saving of channel frequencies was broken on some
           locales
         * New translations: Czech, Russian

RadioActive requires a Video4Linux-enabled kernel. This appeared
sometime in the 2.1 series, but the current stable (2.2) series is
just fine.

Besides the kernel, you'll also need GTK-- and Gnome-- version 1.2.0, GTK+
version 1.2 and October GNOME. The panel applet version also needs the
Panel-- library, available at http://cactus.rulez.org/projects/panelmm/

Happy radioactivity,

        Cactus
