Projects @ Mindrot.org
Projects and quick hacks that (to some extent) live here include:
- Portable OpenSSH
- The port of OpenBSD's SSH protocol implementation to other POSIX operating systems (including most Unices and Windows via Cygwin).
- flowd
- A small, fast, secure and featureful NetFlow™ collector daemon. [moved to Google Code]
- pfflowd
- Cisco NetFlow™ datagram export for OpenBSD's PF packet filter.
- flashboot
- A set of makefiles and scripts for building small, customised OpenBSD distributions suitable for running off read-only boot media (especially flash). Based on OpenBSD's install floppy build system.
- Softflowd
- This is a software implementation of Cisco's NetFlow™ traffic accounting protocol. It collects and tracks traffic flows by listening on a promiscuous interface. Designed for minimal CPU load on busy networks. [moved to Google Code]
- Miscellaneous Code
-
Various other things developed or patched here, including Python modules:
- py-radix - Radix tree data structure for Python. [moved to Google Code]
- py-bcrypt and jBCrypt - OpenBSD-style Blowfish password hashing for Pythoni and Java. [moved to Google Code]
- py-editdist - Levenshtein edit distance calculation for Python. [moved to Google Code]
- passwdqc - Password complexity checking plugin for OpenBSD
- Some older junk too...
- Traffic-vis
- A suite of network traffic monitoring tools, which can write reports in a number of formats. Largely unmaintained.
- OpenBSD-related things
- Patches and config snippets related to OpenBSD.
- SSH Protocol, Tips and Tricks tutorial
- In 2002 I was invited to give a tutorial at the Australian Unix Users Group's Winter conference introducing the SSH protocols, the OpenSSH implementation and demonstrating some of the its fundamental and more advanced uses. The slides and the tutorial notes are distributed here in a number of formats which I occasionally update to keep abrest of continuing development.

I have just made a bugfix release of py-editdist to fix a bug spotted by Hamish Allan that could return incorrect results for some input cases. The release (available from the download section below) contains a tarball for Unix and binaries for Windows Python 2.4 and 2.5.

mtemplate is now in CVS. This is a small and simple text templating system for C programs, based around a simple generic type library with Python/Javascript-style variable resolution (e.g. it supports nesting of arrays and dictionaries and a lookup syntax like "dict.member.array[10].blah").
mtemplate is intended to be easy to use and have no external dependencies. The code in CVS is stable enough for me to have rewritten cfsm using it. At present it is only available in CVS, but if it interests you then please mail me and I will consider making a release.

I have rewritten cfsm in C using Lex, Yacc and mtemplate for output generation.
