fwknop stands for "Firewall Knock Operator" and is an upcoming piece of software that will be released at the DEFCON 12 conference in July, 2004 in Las Vegas.
fwknop implements network access controls (via iptables) based on a flexible port knocking mini-language, but with a twist it combines port knocking and passive Operating system fingerprinting to make it possible to do things like only allow, say, Linux-2.4/2.6 systems to connect to your SSH daemon.
fwknop supports shared, multi-protocol port knock sequences along with both relative and absolute timeouts, and coded port knock sequences encrypted with the Rijndael block cipher.
Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source libraries.
We emphasize libraries that work well with the C++ Standard Library. Boost libraries are intended to be widely useful, and usable across a broad spectrum of applications. The Boost license encourages both commercial and non-commercial use.
We aim to establish "existing practice" and provide reference implementations so that Boost libraries are suitable for eventual standardization. Ten Boost libraries are already included in the C++ Standards Committee s Library Technical Report (TR1) as a step toward becoming part of a future C++ Standard. More Boost libraries are proposed for the upcoming TR2.
Boost works on almost any modern Operating system, including UNIX and Windows variants. Follow the Getting Started Guide to download and install Boost. Popular Linux and Unix distributions such as Fedora, Debian, and NetBSD include pre-built Boost packages. Boost may also already be available on your organization s internal web server.
This document accompanies a sample co-installer that can be used in conjunction with an INF file to install additional device INF files on the target system during a device installation. The instructions herein apply to the Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 Operating systems.
The sample co-installer described in this article interprets CopyINF directives in a [DDInstall] section in an INF file. The sample demonstrates using a co-installer to perform processing after a device has been installed, parsing the INF section that is being used for the installation, and the use of the SetupCopyOEMInf, SetupGetInfInformation, SetupQueryInfOriginalFileInformation and SetupDiGetActualSectionToInstall APIs.
This book explains how to write device drivers for the newest members of the MicrosoftWindows family of Operating systems using the Windows Driver Model (WDM). In this Introduction, I ll explain who should be reading this book, the organization of the book, and how to use the book most effectively. You ll also find a note on errors and a section on other resources you can use to learn about driver programming. Looking ahead, Chapter 1 explains how the two main branches of the Windows family operate internally, what a WDM device driver is, and how it relates to the rest of Windows.

Free open-source disk encryption software for Windows Vista/XP, Mac OS X, and Linux
Main Features:
* Creates a virtual encrypted disk within a file and mounts it as a real disk.
* Encrypts an entire partition or storage device such as USB flash drive or hard drive.
* Encrypts a partition or drive where Windows is installed (pre-boot authentication).
* Encryption is automatic, real-time (on-the-fly) and transparent.
* Provides two levels of plausible deniability, in case an adversary forces you to reveal the password:
1) Hidden volume (steganography) and hidden Operating system.
2) No TrueCrypt volume can be identified (volumes cannot be distinguished from random data).
* Encryption algorithms: AES-256, Serpent, and Twofish. Mode of operation: XTS.
Further information regarding features of the software may be found in the:http://www.truecrypt.org/
The Red Hat Linux and Fedora distributions have become one of the major Linux
distributions, bringing to the PC all the power and flexibility of a Unix workstation as
well as a complete set of Internet applications and a fully functional desktop
interface. This book is designed not only to be a complete reference on Linux, but also to
provide clear and detailed explanations of Linux features. No prior knowledge of Unix is
assumed Linux is an Operating system anyone can use
It can be argued that the current free-software movement is the most important
thing happening in computing today. We are in the midst of a major shift from
all software being proprietary and closely held by individual companies to a large
body of software that can be freely acquired and used by anyone for any purpose.
Free software now includes not only programming language compilers and linkers,
but numerous utilities, graphical user interface environments, and even entire
Operating systems.
