Balance is our surprisingly successful load balancing solution being a simple but powerful generic tcp proxy with round robin load balancing and failover mechanisms. Its behaviour can be controlled at runtime using a simple command line syntax. Balance supports IPv6 on the listening side which makes it a very useful tool for IPv6 migration of IPv4 only services and servers. Balance successfully runs at least on Linux(386), Linux(Itanium), FreeBSD, BSD/OS, Solaris, Cygwin, Mac-OS X, HP-UX and many more. Balance is Open Source Software and released under GPL licensing terms.

BandwidthD tracks usage of TCP/IP network subnets and builds html files with graphs to display utilization. Charts are built by individual IPs, and by default display utilization over 2 day, 8 day, 40 day, and 400 day periods. Furthermore, each ip address's http://josefsson.org/shishi/feg-inetutils/ - utilization can be logged out at intervals of 3.3 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 hour or 12 hours in cdf format, or to a backend database server. HTTP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, VPN, and P2P traffic are color coded. BandwidthD runs on most platforms including windows. Required libraries for unix are only: libpcap, libgl and libpng. Most of the info you're looking for is on the [http://sourceforge.net/projects/bandwidthd SourceForge project page]. At SourceForge we keep all new releases, the bug tracker and the support forums. Bandwidthd now produces output in 2 ways. The first is as a standalone application that produces static html and png output every 200 seconds. The second is as a sensor that transmits it's data to a backend database which is then reported on by dynamic php pages. The visual output of both is simular, but the database driven system allows for searching, filtering, multiple sensors and custom reports.

BOPM is an open source open proxy monitor, designed for use with hybrid-based ircds, although it can be used with slight modification on any server which has the ability to show connects to opers and that supports KLINEs.

BFilter is a filtering web proxy. It was originally intended for removing banner ads only, but since then its capabilities have been greatly extended. Unlike most of the similar tools, it doesn't rely on blacklists (although it does support them). The problem with blacklists is that advertisers are always one step ahead. You see an ad slip through, you update your blacklist, and in case it didn't help, you add a new entry yourself. Once I got tired of that, I decided to write a proxy that would detect ads heuristically, much like modern anti-virus software manages to detect many viruses unknown to it. BFilter is Free software released under the General Public License (version 2 or later).

EHS stands for embedded HTTP server. It allows you to easily add web server functionality to any C++ app. EHS allows your program to bind a port (probably not port 80, but it could if you weren't running a web server there already and ran the application as root) and handle application-specific web requests. It is handy for remote administration or statistics gathering. EHS is implemented as a C++ class which your application subclasses.

hping is a free packet generator and analyzer for the TCP/IP protocol. Hping is one of the de-facto tools for security auditing and testing of firewalls and networks, and was used to exploit the Idle Scan scanning technique now implemented in the Nmap port scanner. The new version of hping, hping3, is scriptable using the Tcl language and implements an engine for string based, human readable description of TCP/IP packets, so that the programmer can write scripts related to low level TCP/IP packet manipulation and analysis in a very short time. ike most tools used in computer security, hping is useful to security experts, but there are a lot of applications related to network testing and system administration. For more information see the what's hping page.

No additional libraries are required. No dedicated daemon (in addition to the sshd daemon) is required to run on the server side. If you need a password, hsftp will ask for it. The password is encrypted by ssh before transmission. hsftp will store the password internally, so you do not need to type it in again during a session.

Httping is like 'ping' but for http-requests. Give it an url, and it'll show you how long it takes to connect, send a request and retrieve the reply (only the headers). Be aware that the transmission across the network also takes time!
