A FUSE filesystem that provides POSIX functionality - UNIX-style
permissions, ownership, special files - for filesystems that do not
have such, e.g. vfat. It is a modern equivalent of the UMSDOS fs.

This utility will dump SPARC OpenPROM device tree in the format
similar to Solaris prtconf, that is, in a nicely readable compact
format.

Schism Tracker is a free reimplementation of Impulse Tracker, a
program used to create high quality music without the requirements of
specialized, expensive equipment, and with a unique "finger feel"
that is difficult to replicate in-part. The player is based on a
highly modified version of the Modplug engine, with a number of
bugfixes and changes to improve IT playback.

SILO, the Sparc Improved boot LOader, is a booting loader program
that runs from the PROM of SPARC (32-bit) and UltraSPARC (64-bit)
based systems.

Squirrelmail is a web-mail reader and writer written in php4. It
supports adressbook, ldap searches and many other plugins.

sshfp generates DNS SSHFP records from SSH public keys. sshfp can
take public keys from a knownhosts file or from scanning the host's
sshd daemon. The ssh client can use these SSHFP records if you set
"VerifyHostKeyDNS yes" in the file /etc/ssh/ssh_config.

Provides a set of daemons to manage access to remote directories and
authentication mechanisms. It provides an NSS and PAM interface toward
the system and a pluggable backend system to connect to multiple different
account sources. It is also the basis to provide client auditing and policy
services for projects like FreeIPA.

Tinyproxy is a light-weight HTTP/HTTPS proxy daemon for POSIX
operating systems. Designed from the ground up to be fast and yet
small, it is an ideal solution for use cases such as embedded
deployments where a full featured HTTP proxy is required, but the
system resources for a larger proxy are unavailable.

ufiformat is a tool to low-level format USB floppy disks.

Varnish is an HTTP accelerator. An HTTP accelerator (often called Reverse
Proxy) is an application that stores (caches) documents that have been
requested over the HTTP protocol.

Based on certain criteria the next client requesting the document is either
given the cached document, or a "fresh" document requested from a backend
server. The purpose of this is to minimize the requests going to the backend
server(s) by serving the same document to potentially many users.

WADptr is a utility for reducing the size of Doom WAD files. The
"compressed" WADs will still work the same as the originals. The
program works by exploiting the WAD file format to combine repeated /
redundant material.

xindy is an index processor that can be used to generate book-like
indexes for arbitrary document-preparation systems. This includes
systems such as TeX and LaTeX, the roff-family, SGML/XML-based
systems (e.g. HTML) that process some kind of text and generate
indexing information. The kernel system is not fixed to any specific
system, but can be configured to work together with such systems.

In comparison to other index processors xindy has several powerful
features that make it an ideal framework for describing and
generating complex indices, addressing especially international
indexing.

Xtables is used to set up, maintain, and inspect the tables of IP
packet filter rules in the Linux kernel.

Xtables-addons is the successor to patch-o-matic(-ng). Likewise, it
contains extensions that were not, or are not yet, accepted in the
main kernel/iptables packages.

The package contains the GeoIP definition files (which IP addresses
belong to which country) that are needed for Xtables-addons's
xt_geoip module.

This product includes GeoLite data created by MaxMind, available from
http://maxmind.com/.

The GeoIP data is from MaxMind.com.
Please do not contact them for errors with this package.

This is still for testing atm. It already builds against the 12.2 branched off project which is not final.

This project is used to publish the official 12.2 updates.

Arping is a util to find out it a specific IP address on the LAN is
"taken" and what MAC address owns it. It is designed to work on
unrouted networks and with ICMP-blocking hosts.

arptables is a user space tool used to set up and maintain thetables of
ARP rules in the Linux kernel. These rules inspect the ARPframes.
arptables is similar to the iptables userspace tool, but less
complicated.

bindfs is a FUSE filesystem for mounting a directory to another location,
similarly to mount --bind. The permissions inside the mountpoint can be altered
using various rules.

ccgfs is a transport-agnostic filesystem. Common transport modes are
"pull" and "push", the latter of which makes it possible to export a
filesystem located in a LAN to a DMZ host without needing to allow
connections from the DMZ as would be the case with the pull model.
Any transport can be used, e.g. ssh for encryption.
