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.
- 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.
- Miscellaneous Code
-
Various other things developed or patched here, including Python modules:
- py-radix - Radix tree data structure for Python
- py-bcrypt and jBCrypt - OpenBSD-style Blowfish password hashing for Pythoni and Java
- py-editdist - Levenshtein edit distance calculation for Python
- 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.
