| directvnc | 0.7.5 | GPL | VNC Client Running on Linux Frame Buffer | DirectVNC is a client implementing the remote framebuffer protocol (rfb) which is used by VNC servers. DirectVNC is special; it uses the linux framebuffer device through the DirectFB library which enables it to run on anything that has a framebuffer without the need for a running X server. |
| gexec | 0.3.5 | GPL | Gexec is a scalable cluster remote execution | GEXEC is a scalable cluster remote execution system which provides fast, RSA authenticated remote execution of parallel and distributed jobs. It provides transparent forwarding of stdin, stdout, stderr, and signals to and from remote processes, provides local environment propagation, and is designed to be robust and to scale to systems over 1000 nodes. |
| gmasqdialer | 0.99.13 | GPL | GNOME/GTK Client for Masqdialer | Gnome client that allows a user to manipulate a Masqdialer controlled ppp link. |
| gnome-keyring | 0.1 | GPL/LGPL | Keyring and password manager for the GNOME desktop | gnome-keyring is a program that keep password and other secrets for users. It is run as a damon in the session, similar to ssh-agent, and other applications can locate it by an environment variable. The program can manage several keyrings, each with its own master password, and there is also a session keyring which is never stored to disk, but forgotten when the session ends. |
| grcm | 0.1.5 | GPL | GUI for remote connections (ssh, telnet, rdesktop, ftp) | grcm (GNOME Remote Connection Manager) is a highly configurable remote connection manager that allows you to store remote connections like telnet, ssh, and rdesktop in a simple-to-use GUI application. |
| grdesktop | 0.22 | GPL | A gtk2 frontend for rdesktop | grdesktop is a frontend, written in C using the GTK+ 2 toolkit, for the remote desktop client (rdesktop). It can save several connections (including their options), and browse the network for available terminal servers. |
| gsh | 0.9.0 | GPL | Run commands on other hosts through ssh | Run commands on other hosts through ssh |
| ka-run | 2.0 | GPL | A program to launch a command on several hosts. | This program allows the user to launch the same command on several hosts. The connection is made via rsh or ssh as the user wants. |
| keychain | 2.0.2 | GPL | Keychain manages ssh-agent to minimise passphrase entry for ssh | keychain helps you to manage RSA and DSA keys in a convenient and secure manner. It acts as a frontend to SSH-agent, but allows you to easily have one long running SSH-agent process per system, rather than the norm of one SSH-agent per login session. This dramatically reduces the number of times you need to enter your passphrase - with keychain, you only need to enter a passphrase once every time your local machine is rebooted. keychain also makes it easy for remote cron jobs to securely "hook in" to a long running SSH-agent process, allowing your scripts to take advantage of RSA and DSA keys. Run keychain once manually per user, after which keychain will run (quietly) every time you log in (from a profile script). Hint: If you get tired of keychain, delete ~/.keychain |
| klcc | 2.0.3 | GPL | KDE LineControl Client | LineControl Client for KDE |
| kmasqdialer | 2.05 | GPL | KMasqDialer - KDE client for the masqdialer modem server | KMasqDialer - KDE client for the masqdialer modem server |
| nocatauth | 0.82 | GPL | NoCatAuth is a third party wireless authentication system | The NoCatAuth project implements a third party wireless authentication system (or Auth system, for short). Written in Perl and C, it takes care of presenting the user with a login prompt, contacts a MySQL database to lookup user credentials, securely notifies the wireless gateway of the user's status, and authorizes further access. Note: The packaged gnupg keys are just using fairly generic values. You will most likely want to generate your own and put them on your authserve and gateway. Note2: You will need to configure /etc/httpd/conf.d/74_authserv.conf for your network. A sample vhost stanza is provided. |
| nocatauth-gateway | 0.82 | GPL | NoCatauth gateway | The NoCatAuth gateway manages local connections, sets bandwidth throttling and firewall rules, and times out old logins after a user specified time limit. While the gateway and auth system can be run on the same machine, it is strongly recommended that the auth system reside on a separate, more tightly secured machine than the gateway. If you do want to run both on the same machine or subnet, you'll need the Net::Netmask perl module. Note: The packaged gnupg keys are just using fairly generic values. You will most likely want to generate your own and put them on your authserve and gateway. Note2: You will need to configure /etc/nocat/gateway.conf for your network. Specifically, you'll need to define AuthServiceAddr. |
| nocatsplash | 0.00 | GPL | NoCatSplash is a Open Public Network Gateway Daemon | NoCatSplash is a Open Public Network Gateway Daemon. It performs as a [captive/open/active] portal. When run on a gateway/router on a network, all web requests are redirected until the client either logs in or clicks "I Accept" to an AUP. The gateway daemon then changes the firewall rules on the gateway to pass traffic for that client (based on IP address and MAC address). |

| poppassd-ceti | 1.8.4 | Distributable | An Eudora and NUPOP change password server. | Poppassd is a daemon allowing users to change their password via Eudora or NUPOP using a network protocol on port 106. This package uses PAM. Original version based on John Norstad's poppassd code. John Norstad's program ran the regular unix "passwd" command. This version calls PAM to change the password. Examine the (un)install scripts with "rpm --scripts <package>" before (de)installation. They modify some system configuration files. (See also ftp://ftp.nwu.edu/pub/poppassd for Norstad's original code). [Note, to log poppassd password changes, add the following line: local4.err -/var/log/poppassd.log to your /etc/syslog.conf file.] |
| putty | 0.54 | MIT | Free SSH, Telnet and Rlogin client | This is the Unix port of the popular Windows ssh client, PuTTY. It supports flexible terminal setup, mid-session reconfiguration using Ctrl-rightclick, multiple X11 authentication protocols, and various other interesting things not provided by ssh in an xterm. |
| rfb | 0.6.1 | GPL | Rfb is a set of rfb enabled tools and applications | The heXoNet RFB Software package includes many different projects. The goal of this package is to provide a comprehensive collection of rfb enabled tools and applications. One application, x0rfbserver, was (and maybe still is) the only complete remote control solution for the X Window System. |
| rlpr | 2.04 | GPL | Remote printing utilities | Rlpr is a package that makes it possible (or at the very least, easier), to print files on remote sites to your local printer. The rlpr package includes BSD-compatible replacements for `lpr', `lpq', and `lprm', whose functionality is a superset of their BSD counterparts. In other words, with the rlpr package, you can do everything you can do with the BSD printing commands, and more. The programs contained within the rlpr package are all GPL'd, and are more lightweight, cleaner and more secure than their BSD counterparts. |
| rsh | 0.17 | BSD | Clients for remote access commands (rsh, rlogin, rcp). | The rsh package contains a set of programs which allow users to run commmands on remote machines, login to other machines and copy files between machines (rsh, rlogin and rcp). All three of these commands use rhosts style authentication. This package contains the clients needed for all of these services. The rsh package should be installed to enable remote access to other machines. |
| scponly | 3.8 | BSD | Connection shell to allow only scp/sftp/rsync | "scponly" is an alternative 'shell' (of sorts) for system administrators who would like to provide access to remote users to both read and write local files without providing any remote execution priviledges. Functionally, it is best described as a wrapper to the "tried and true" ssh suite of applications. |
| synergy | 1.0.3 | GPL | Mouse and keyboard sharing utility | Synergy lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems, each with its own display, without special hardware. It's intended for users with multiple computers on their desk since each system uses its own display. |

How many other cases exist where [company] has included third party technology in it products, but has also taken the cheaper licensing option and left developers and even users exposed to the threat of lawsuit? Due to the closed nature of the proprietary business model, how can third party developers even check? — NZheretic on LWN
