...but with a twist. Avahi is a D-BUS based mDNS solution from
Freedesktop.org.
Avahi provides Service discovery on a local network -- this means that you

being shared. This kind of technology is already found in MacOS X
(branded 'Rendezvous', 'Bonjour' and sometimes 'ZeroConf') and is very
convenient.

The ldapscripts are simple shell scripts that allow to manage
POSIX accounts (users, groups, machines) in an LDAP directory.
They can be used as independent tools or within Samba configuration
to manage POSIX parts of the LDAP accounts. See README for more

Traff is a program that attaches itself to one or more
network interfaces, sniffs all IP-packages passing at it and
accounts each packets size. The collected information can be
dumped to a mysql-Database, for further processing.
The configuration is very flexible, allowing you to create
different/multiple accounting rules.
