Subject: UPX 0.90 - a powerful executable packer
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 00:57:04 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
We are pleased to announce the next public release of our
new executable packer UPX. The Ultimate Packer for eXecutables
is a portable, extendable, high-performance executable packer for
several different executable formats. It achieves an excellent
compression ratio and offers very fast decompression.
UPX can pack (and unpack) the following executable formats:
dos/exe, dos/sys, dos/com, djgpp2/coff, watcom/le,
win32/pe, rtm32/pe, tmt/adam, atari/tos and linux/i386
You can find UPX at:
http://upx.tsx.org (official redirector)
http://wildsau.idv.uni-linz.ac.at/mfx/upx.html
http://www.nexus.hu/upx
NOTES FOR LINUX/i386
How it works:
Because Linux is a real operating system, the in-place in-memory
decompression scheme used in the other executable formats doesn't
work here.
Instead we must use temporary decompression to disk. Interestingly -
because of the good memory management of the Linux kernel - this
often does not introduce a noticable delay, and in fact there
will be no disk access at all if you have enough free memory as
the entire process takes places within the filesystem buffers.
A compressed executable consists of the UPX stub and an overlay
which contains the original program in a compressed form.
The UPX stub is a statically linked ELF executable and does
the following at program startup:
1) decompress the overlay to a temporary location in /tmp
2) open the temporary file for reading
3) try to delete the temporary file and start (execve)
the uncompressed program in /tmp using /proc/self/fd/X as
attained by step 2)
4) if that fails, fork off a subprocess to clean up and
start the program in /tmp in the meantime
The UPX stub is about 1700 bytes long, partly written in assembler
and only uses kernel syscalls. It is not linked against any libc.
Spread and enjoy,
Markus & Laszlo

Subject: OpenVerse Visual Chat 0.7-2
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 01:06:50 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
OpenVerse 0.7-1 Visual Chat Program
Hello,
This is the latest update for OpenVerse visual chat.. Many changes! If you
have not updated in a while, this version is a must see! It is much more
stable, has LOADS of new features and is nearly bug-free!
RedHat RPMS and other forms of packages can be downloaded from the website
at http://openverse.org/
The OpenVerse is a visual chat program written in Tcl/Tk. The program
connects to any OpenVerse server (server and client code included).
The OpenVerse is similar to other graphical chat systems like The Palace
and Microsoft Chat with the main difference being that it is much more
OPEN and also runs on a variety of systems including Windows, *nix (Yes
Linux too), Macintosh OS/2 you name it! Anything which Tcl/Tk is available
for should run OpenVerse just fine!
**** RECENT CHANGES ****
Sun Nov 14 11:21:41 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress (0.7-2 RELEASED)
* Added pinfo.gif to the setup.
Sat Nov 13 23:41:00 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* The client will now let you know when your avatar is too big.
Sat Nov 13 12:17:07 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* You can now right click on a user's name tag to bring up a menu
similar to the names menu. It's kidna not what I wanted :( I
can't seem to find a good way for it to go away.
* Broke the DoNames function up a little so that the same code
could be used for other functions. Namely, right clicking a name
tag.
Fri Nov 12 15:08:47 EST 1999 Beat 0.8 In Progress
* Added a file browser window for sending files to users. This
same window should be reuseable with other things where
selecting a file is nessecary.
* Fixed a problem with the new centralized chat code where it was
not remembering things said to be later filled into the text
chat window.
* Moved the ignore options into a seperate pull down menu from the
list of options.
* More work on the Technical Documentation!
* Just about finished up the personal information section.
* Added a binding for RightClicking on the canvas. This binding
can be used by plugins by trapping the plugin.traps.RightClick
function. It will pass the x, y coords which were clicked by the
user.
Thu Nov 11 11:18:43 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* The setup window's buttons now work correctly, Save, Apply and
Save & Apply will do their expected functions
* All TextChat messages and all Logging now go through one central
function. This function is called InsertIntoChat which takes two
arguments. the first is a variable called $log which tells the
function if it should log the text or not (also weather to
remember it or not) this makes the log file fully functional
now.
Thu Nov 11 09:33:46 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* Included KaosBeetl's change to add a button to the setup window
which honors or deny's exit commands from the server so he won't
be pushed out of the room when he is idleing.
Tue Nov 9 18:13:06 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* Fixed two protocol problems in the server code. First, it was
allowing a name of any length to be used. This has been limited
to 13 characters. Second, it was improperly disconnecting users
who entered a bad name, this has been changed to issue NAMEINUSE
when they enter a bad name.
* Fixed a problem with the saving of the new Personal Information
section. It was not correctly being applied when saved.
Sun Nov 7 23:28:17 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* More work on the setup stuff. Added more support for the
personal information section. It will be saved now when the user
changes this information. there are also global variables which
hold this information.
* Added options for sound and name tags to the setup window.
* Updated help for the sound and name tags options in setup.
Sun Nov 7 20:34:55 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* Added a log button to the TextChat window. This button turns on
or off the loging of things which happen in OpenVerse. Logging
is not very verbose, it will log file transfers and chat and
private messages to and from you but not system messages, avatar
changes, etc.
* Updated help for the above.
Wed Nov 3 19:25:33 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* Fixed a bug related to the downloading of avatars. If someone
else had an image by the same name, both of you would switch to
the new image. Now, it will only switch the avatar of the person
it belongs to.
* Added a pulldown menuthingey on the avatars button in the setup
menu. Alligned the suff on that side of the screen a little
better.
* Added the ability to set the default server and port within the
setup menu.
* Changed the default servername to world.openverse.org
Tue Nov 2 15:00:27 EST 1999 Beta 0.8 in progress
* Started working on a personal information section of the setup
(User Profile).
* Began work on Technical Documentation
* Changes to the fun and notfun menus to more correctly show the
button functions based on existing UIs. Grumble.
* Created a help/About help page and added this as the first item
in the main help index. this about page will show the version
number, my email address and real name and a link to the
website.

Subject: TkDesk 1.2 - Desktop and File Manager
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 01:08:50 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
ANNOUNCING TkDesk 1.2 14.11.1999
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
TkDesk - a Desktop and File Manager for UNIX's running X11
Changes since 1.1:
o TkDesk now supports Tcl/Tk 8.x and itcl 3.0! The older
combinations (Tcl/Tk 7.5/4.1 and 7.6/4.2) are also still supported,
though this is likely to change in the next release.
o Small balloon help windows (a.k.a. screen tips) are displayed when
the mouse pointer is over files that have an annotation, whose names
are longer than the listbox's width, or which are symlinks.
o Editor enhancements:
- Status bar
- Search backwards
- New "Selection" menu to pipe selection, and to shift it left/right
- Choice between old and nedit-like shortcut bindings
o Configuration files may now be reloaded selectively. It's no longer
required to use the built-in editor to edit these.
o Find dialog now gets updated while search is in progress.
o Bug and memory leak fixes. Thanks to all who sent in bug reports.
o TkDesk is now maintained by J. Chris Coppick. See paragraph
"Maintenance Change" below for details.
*** IMPORTANT: Maintenance Change ***
Starting with this release TkDesk will be maintained by J. Chris Coppick.
Please send any sort of feedback like bug reports, feature requests,
code donations and offers to help directly to him at:
jchris@znet.com
Thanks Chris for taking this on!
Where to get TkDesk:
You can get TkDesk from its homepage at:
http://people.mainz.netsurf.de/~bolik/tkdesk/
You can also get it from (no guarantees on the paths given below):
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/Incoming/
or
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/desktop/
and all of sunsite's mirrors.
ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/NEW/
and all of Neosoft's mirrors.
The names of the files are as follows:
Source package: tkdesk-1.2.tar.gz
Dynamic binary (Linux i386): tkdesk-1.2.bin.ELF.static.tar.gz
Static binary (Linux i386): tkdesk-1.2.bin.ELF.tar.gz
Common package for the binaries: tkdesk-1.2.bin.common.tar.gz
The Linux binaries are built using Linux 2.0.36, egcs 1.1.1,
Tcl/Tk 8.0, and itcl 3.0. They are in ELF format only.
What is TkDesk?
TkDesk is a graphical desktop and file manager for several types
of UNIX (such as Linux) and the X Window System. It offers a very
rich set of file operations and services, and gives the user the
ability to configure most aspects of TkDesk in a powerful way. The
reason for this is the use of Tcl/Tk as the configuration and (for
the biggest part of TkDesk) implementation language.
This is a brief overview of the most prominent features of TkDesk:
o Arbitrary number of automatically refreshed file browsers and file
list windows,
o Configurable file-specific popup-menus,
o Drag and drop,
o Keyboard navigation,
o Files and directories may also be dropped onto the root window,
o Configurable application bar, with several displays and cascadable
popup menus for each button, files can also be dropped here,
o History of visited directories, opened files, executed commands
and many other things, which is automatically saved to disk,
o Find files through their annotation, name, contents, size or age,
o Trash can for safe "deletion" of files and directories,
o Calculation of disk usage for directory hierarchies,
o All file operations (find, copy, disk usage, etc.) are carried out
in the background,
o Traversal of directory hierarchies through recursive cascaded menus,
o Bookmarks, create menu entries for often used files/directories,
o Comprehensive hypertextish online help,
o Built-in multi-buffer editor, providing virtually unlimited undo,
o Remote control of Netscape and Emacs/XEmacs,
o Sound support,
o Powerful on-the-fly configuration of nearly all aspects of TkDesk
using Tcl/Tk, allowing for unlimited extensibility,
o Free of charge! But see the file COPYING, or menu entry
Help/License for information on usage and redistribution of TkDesk.
o TkDesk is free software, as defined by the GNU General Public License.
Enjoy,
Christian
(...and please remember: the maintainer of TkDesk, starting with
this release is J. Chris Coppick, jchris@znet.com)

Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 00:59:20 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
There is a new silly 3D game available for Linux (and other OS)
Download:
You can download version 1.0 of the program in whole by HTTP from
http://www.csv.ica.uni-stuttgart.de/homes/js/vrmldemo/warbird.tgz
Task:
You have to steer a warbird and you have to catch the enemy cube.
Drag the red box with the pointer to steer the warbird.
If you reach the cube with the top of the warbird, the enemy disappears
and the viewer will try to load a other URL.
Installation:
You need to install the free VRML-Viewer "lookat" available in source from
http://www.vermontel.net/~cmorley/vrml.html
Lookat is a GL-based program. You need to install MESA or OpenGL to use it.
It is possible to use Cosmoplayer (for M$WinXX, Mac and SGI). AFAIK Despite
a Unix/IRIX version exist, Cosmoplayer is not available for Linux.
I you have a VRML viewer already installed (and a fast Internet connection
to Germany), you can test the program by surfing to
http://www.csv.ica.uni-stuttgart.de/homes/js/vrmldemo/warbird_lookat.wrl
Modifications:
This version use small picture and sound files.
I'm sure you want to exchange them with other files.
Also included is a special versions of this program
warbird_future_lookat.wrl

Subject: IPTraf 2.1.1 - an IP network statistics utility
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 01:05:52 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Hi everyone,
I'd like to announce the release of IPTraf 2.1.1. This is a maintenance
release fixing a few minor bugs, notably a small oversignt that caused the
packet size distribution facility to produce inaccurate counts. Users of
previous versions are encouraged to upgrade.
IPTraf is an IP-oriented network statistics utility which can be used to
obtain TCP connection statistics, per-interface statistics and load
figures, statistics by TCP/UDP ports, packet size breakdowns, and LAN
station counts and loads. This is an ncurses-based utility, and therefore
runs on the Linux console or high-speed terminals.
You can obtain the latest version at
ftp://ftp.cebu.mozcom.com/pub/linux/net/iptraf-2.1.1.tar.gz
or
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/network/monitor/iptraf-2.1.1.tar.gz
or you can visit the IPTraf home page at
http://cebu.mozcom.com/riker/iptraf/
Please return feedback to riker@mozcom.com.
Regards,
Gerard

Subject: rh-isdn-0.56-1 package for RedHat >=5.2 and ISDN4Linux
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 01:11:17 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Distribution: RedHat >=5.2
Summary: A few scripts and documentation to set up ISDN on RedHat
BuildArchitectures: noarch
Requires: isdn4k-utils initscripts net-tools
mailto:mz@webideal.de?Subject=rh-isdn
URL: http://www.webideal.de/rh-isdn/
ChangeLog: http://www.webideal.de/rh-isdn/ChangeLog
Downloads: http://www.webideal.de/rh-isdn/downloads/ (tgz, RPM, SRPM)
Hello everybody,
%Changelog
* Sun Nov 14 1999 <mz@webideal.de>
- - put the whole stuff into CVS (really nice tool), building the package
therefore now requires python and the whole docbook-jade-sgml stuff
- - changed copyright to GPL
- - Ruediger Sopp <rsopp@ernie.MI.Uni-Koeln.DE> provided some code for
dialin-support in ifup-ippp as well as support for more than one number.
- - as well he reported a bug, where the default-route was deleted even if
the dialed device was not the GATEWAYDEV. This is hopefully fixed by
the changes in /etc/ppp/scripts/routes.
%description
As RedHat does not seem to care for ISDN I wrote a
few scripts on my own with a little bit of inspiration by
isdn4net and the SuSE-startup-files. There is a spanish
version of this document available.
This is tested for RH 5.2 in combination with PAP-PPP,
dynamic IP and an Elsa QuikStep 1000 ISA-card (only
hisax is supported by these scripts out of the box).
I now have tested this one with the "german"
Halloween III which is a descendant of RH6.0.
Regards
Mirko
