398vt102 list(perl) cvs-co(vt102)
399 <code>vt102</code> is a vt100/102/131 hardware simulator, implementing
400 practical and 100% compatible DEC VT terminal "emulation".
401
402 Most terminal emulators nowadays strive to emulate a DEC VT102
403 terminal (even those claiming to emulate a VT100 usually mean
404 VT102). Unfortunately, even though there are some VT100 simulators,
405 there haven't been any DEC VT102 ones, so it was very hard to test
406 compatibility with the real device.
407
408 Thanks to this simulator, one can now test how the "real" VT102 behaves,
409 and as free extra, it also simulates DEC VT100 and DEC VT131 terminals.
410
411 ROMs are included - a standard Perl 5.10+ installation, the
412 <code>stty</code> utility and the <code>IO::Pty</code> module are
413 required to run the script, and rxvt-unicode, xterm or a similar terminal
414 emulation is required to have display/keyboard support.

489IO-FDPass cpan cvs-pod(FDPass.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
490 Pass a file descriptor over a socket.
491
492 This small low-level module only has one purpose: pass a file descriptor
493 to another process, using a (streaming) unix domain socket (on POSIX
494 systems) or any (streaming) socket (on WIN32 systems).
495
496Proc-FastSpawn cpan cvs-pod(FastSpawn.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
497 fork+exec, or spawn, a subprocess as quickly as possible
498
499 The purpose of this small (in scope and footprint) module is simple:
500 spawn a subprocess asynchronously as efficiently and/or fast as
501 possible. Basically the same as calling fork+exec (on POSIX), but
502 hopefully faster than those two syscalls.
503
504 Apart from fork overhead, this module also allows you to fork+exec
505 programs when otherwise you couldn't - for example, when you use POSIX
506 threads in your perl process then it generally isn't safe to call
507 fork from perl, but it is safe to use this module to execute external
508 processes.
509
510AnyEvent-Fork cpan cvs-pod(Fork.pm,) cvs-pod(Fork/Early.pm) cvs-pod(Fork/Template.pm) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
511 Everything you wanted to use fork() for, but couldn't.
512
513 This module allows you to create new processes, without actually forking
514 them from your current process (avoiding the problems of forking), but
515 preserving most of the advantages of fork.
516
517 It can be used to create new worker processes or new independent
518 subprocesses for short- and long-running jobs, process pools (e.g. for
519 use in pre-forked servers) but also to spawn new external processes (such
520 as CGI scripts from a webserver), which can be faster (and more well
521 behaved) than using fork+exec in big processes.
522
523AnyEvent-Fork-Remote cpan cvs-pod(Remote.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
524 Remote processes with AnyEvent::Fork interface
525
526 Despite what the name of this module might suggest, it doesn't actually
527 create remote processes for you. But it does make it easy to use them,
528 once you have started them.
529
530 This module implements a very similar API as AnyEvent::Fork. In fact,
531 similar enough to require at most minor modifications to support both
532 at the same time. For example, it works with AnyEvent::Fork::RPC and
533 AnyEvent::Fork::Pool.
534
535AnyEvent-Fork-RPC cpan cvs-pod(RPC.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
536 Simple RPC extension for AnyEvent::Fork
537
538 This module implements a simple RPC protocol and backend for processes
539 created via AnyEvent::Fork, allowing you to call a function in the
540 child process and receive its return values (up to 4GB serialised).
541
542 It implements two different backends: a synchronous one that works like a
543 normal function call, and an asynchronous one that can run multiple jobs
544 concurrently in the child, using AnyEvent.
545
546 It also implements an asynchronous event mechanism from the child to the
547 parent, that could be used for progress indications or other information.
548
549AnyEvent-Fork-Pool cpan cvs-pod(Pool.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
550 Simple process pool manager on top of AnyEvent::Fork and AnyEvent::Fork::RPC.
551
552 This module uses processes created via AnyEvent::Fork and the RPC
553 protocol implement in AnyEvent::Fork::RPC to create a load-balanced pool
554 of processes that handles jobs.
555
556 Understanding of AnyEvent::Fork is helpful but not critical to be able
557 to use this module, but a thorough understanding of AnyEvent::Fork::RPC
558 is, as it defines the actual API that needs to be implemented in the
559 children.

945 GVPE creates a virtual ethernet network with multiple nodes using a
946 variety of transport protocols. Participating nodes do not need to trust
947 each other.
948
949 GVPE creates a virtual ethernet (broadcasts supported, any protocol that
950 works with a normal ethernet should work with GVPE) by creating encrypted
951 host-to-host tunnels between multiple endpoints.
952 <p />
953 Unlike other virtual private "network" solutions which merely create a
954 single tunnel, GVPE creates a real network with multiple endpoints.
955 <p />
956 It is designed to be very simple and robust (cipher selection done at
957 compiletime etc.), and easy to setup (only a single config file shared
958 unmodified between all hosts).
959 <p />
960 VPN hosts can neither sniff nor fake packets, that is, you can use
961 MAC-based filtering to ensure authenticity of packets even from member
962 nodes.
963 <p />
964 GVPE can also be used to tunnel into some vpn network using a variety of
965 protocols (raw IP, UDP, TCP, HTTPS-proxy-connect, ICMP and DNS). It is,
966 however, primarily designed to sit on the gateway machines of company
967 branches to connect them together.

1179fcrackzip cvs-co(fcrackzip.html)
1180 <b>fcrackzip</b> is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
1181
1182 <h3>Why, the hell, another zip cracker?</h3>
1183
1184 Naturally, programs are born out of an actual need. The situation with
1185 fcrackzip was no different... I'm not using zip very much, but recently
1186 I needed a password cracker. "Sure", I thought, "there are hundreds of
1187 them out there, I'll just gonna get one!". This wasn't so easy, in fact,
1188 none of the zipcrackers I found were able to find the passwords, either
1189 they didn't accept more than one zipfile, were awfully slow, or didn't do
1190 brute force attacks (which I needed). The worst thing was: no source!.
1191
1192 <h3>Why is <i>no source</i> such a bad thing?</h3>
1193
1194 [insert big chapter about the free software spirit here ;)], anyway
1195 people will never learn... You will find reasons why it's much better to
1196 provide source to your programs here, at opensource.org, and here, at the
1197 Free Software Foundation. Now, what are the features of fcrackzip?
1198
1199 <ul><li>
1200 <p>FREE</p>
1201
1202 <p>It doesn't cost anything, it will run on many architectures, and
1203 the source is freely available, so you can customise it to your
1204 needs. If you make improvements, don't hesitate to mail them to me,
1205 and I will include them in fcrackzip!</p>
1206
1207 <p>One goal of fcrackzip was to provide a free but still fast
1208 zipcracker, so that other people can improve and contribute it
1209 further, in an open developement style.</p>
1210
1211 <p>Other programs, like fzc, come not only without source, but the
1212 executable is even encrypted, so improving it or customizing it is
1213 difficult at best. (Maybe the programmers of other crackers don't
1214 want that people see how crappy their code actually is? Nobody
1215 knows for sure, but I see no other reason for this strange, but
1216 common, behaviour)</p>
1217
1218 </li><li>
1219 <p>FAST</p>
1220
1221 <p>On my old machine (a pentium-90), the portable C version is 12%
1222 slower than fzc, the fastest cracker I could find. Small parts of
1223 fcrackzip have been converted to x86 assembly, so it performs a bit
1224 faster (around 4%) than fzc now, on the same hardware (note: this
1225 is highly os/compiler dependent). Since the author of fzc claims
1226 that it is written fully in assembler, further improvements might
1227 well be possible. Incidently, on my new P-II machine, fcrackzip is
1228 almost twice as fast as fzc ;)</p>
1229
1230 </li><li>
1231 <p>PORTABLE</p>
1232
1233 <p>fcrackzip was written in ISO-C, and should run on most platforms,
1234 even 64 bit ones (maybe after some tweaking). I'll be glad to hear
1235 about portability problems so I can fix them.</p>
1236
1237 </li><li>
1238 <p>FEATUREFUL</p>
1239
1240 <p>fcrackzip will, at some later stage at least, support many more
1241 useful operation modes than other crackers. It already supports
1242 multiple zip files with multiple files. Remember that the code is
1243 only a few hours old!</p>
1244
1245 <p>However, since version 0.2.0 fcrackzip also includes a mode to
1246 brute force cpmask'ed images, something no other program (that I
1247 know of) can do, so at least there is one feature other crackers
1248 don't have.</p>
1249
1250 <p>And you can always implement your own modes.</p>
1251

953fcrackzip cvs-co(fcrackzip.html)
954 <b>fcrackzip</b> is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
955
956 <h3>Why, the hell, another zip cracker?</h3>
957
958 Naturally, programs are born out of an actual need. The situation with
959 fcrackzip was no different... I'm not using zip very much, but recently
960 I needed a password cracker. "Sure", I thought, "there are hundreds of
961 them out there, I'll just gonna get one!". This wasn't so easy, in fact,
962 none of the zipcrackers I found were able to find the passwords, either
963 they didn't accept more than one zipfile, were awfully slow, or didn't do
964 brute force attacks (which I needed). The worst thing was: no source!.
965
966 <h3>Why is <i>no source</i> such a bad thing?</h3>
967
968 [insert big chapter about the free software spirit here ;)], anyway
969 people will never learn... You will find reasons why it's much better to
970 provide source to your programs here, at opensource.org, and here, at the
971 Free Software Foundation. Now, what are the features of fcrackzip?
972
973 <ul><li>
974 <p>FREE</p>
975
976 <p>It doesn't cost anything, it will run on many architectures, and
977 the source is freely available, so you can customise it to your
978 needs. If you make improvements, don't hesitate to mail them to me,
979 and I will include them in fcrackzip!</p>
980
981 <p>One goal of fcrackzip was to provide a free but still fast
982 zipcracker, so that other people can improve and contribute it
983 further, in an open developement style.</p>
984
985 <p>Other programs, like fzc, come not only without source, but the
986 executable is even encrypted, so improving it or customizing it is
987 difficult at best. (Maybe the programmers of other crackers don't
988 want that people see how crappy their code actually is? Nobody
989 knows for sure, but I see no other reason for this strange, but
990 common, behaviour)</p>
991
992 </li><li>
993 <p>FAST</p>
994
995 <p>On my old machine (a pentium-90), the portable C version is 12%
996 slower than fzc, the fastest cracker I could find. Small parts of
997 fcrackzip have been converted to x86 assembly, so it performs a bit
998 faster (around 4%) than fzc now, on the same hardware (note: this
999 is highly os/compiler dependent). Since the author of fzc claims
1000 that it is written fully in assembler, further improvements might
1001 well be possible. Incidently, on my new P-II machine, fcrackzip is
1002 almost twice as fast as fzc ;)</p>
1003
1004 </li><li>
1005 <p>PORTABLE</p>
1006
1007 <p>fcrackzip was written in ISO-C, and should run on most platforms,
1008 even 64 bit ones (maybe after some tweaking). I'll be glad to hear
1009 about portability problems so I can fix them.</p>
1010
1011 </li><li>
1012 <p>FEATUREFUL</p>
1013
1014 <p>fcrackzip will, at some later stage at least, support many more
1015 useful operation modes than other crackers. It already supports
1016 multiple zip files with multiple files. Remember that the code is
1017 only a few hours old!</p>
1018
1019 <p>However, since version 0.2.0 fcrackzip also includes a mode to
1020 brute force cpmask'ed images, something no other program (that I
1021 know of) can do, so at least there is one feature other crackers
1022 don't have.</p>
1023
1024 <p>And you can always implement your own modes.</p>
1025
1026 </li></ul>
1027
1028 <h3>Caveat, Imperator!</h3>
1029
1030 <p>Naturally, there are also some drawbacks. At the moment, fcrackzip
1031 is a bit slower than necessary, and lacks some important (or nice)
1032 features, like automatic unzip-testing and others. On the other hand,
1033 fcrackzip-0.0.1 was hacked together in under ten hours, and you can
1034 always modify the source (and send me patches!!!) (I hope I've made it
1035 clear now ;)</p>
