Amiga Security Site online
Marius ´Cyborg´ Schwarz wrote:
Due to problems regarding Aminet I decided to put the programs online directly.
Additionally I've made some documents dealing with firewalling on the Amiga and
security in general, thus the side went online that late.
Now on this website among other things there are the TCPScanner in an even better version than it was
planned for Aminet, a tool to analyse firewall-logs to discover undesirable portscans. I did it
without the possibility to directly strike back, since this wouldn't pay. There is an additional
manual how to create meaningful log-files and the promised protection against the misuse of BlackIRC
from outside.
Anybody wanting to make her/his Amiga more secure is welcome.

Handelsblatt: Camgaroo: The second start
Carsten Schröder has drawn our attention to an article in Handelsblatt. The article is from 7th May 2001 and therefore is something old but nevertheless it is very interesting. The article is about the career of Gabriele Lechner which is well-known from her time where she was Amiga-publishing trader and author.
Here is a small part of the article:
»You can certainly still remember the Amiga?", Gabriele Lechner asks as a precaution as she fetches her little old-fashioned book from behind the desk. Only few poeple of the current dotcom-generation know the highly popular homecomputer of Commodore in the 80s. According to Lechner the Amiga was not only a computer - it was the beginning of her career as an employer.
Because her publisher of that time only wants to publish her book about the Amiga very hesitantly she founded her own publishing house overnight.«
You can find the full article under the title link. (ps) (Translation: dr)

System-Monitor: Sysmon V1.16
Etienne Vogt has released version 1.16 of his system-monitors.
Sysmon is a system monitoring and enhancing package based on a shared library
and Shell based support commands. It requires AmigaOS 2.04 or higher.
Installation of Richard Körber's Identify.library (util/libs/Identify.lha
on Aminet) is recommended if you want the Sysmon monitor to be able to
identify expansion boards.
If your Amiga has a MMU (Memory Management Unit), it is also recommended,
but not required, that you install Thomas Richter's mmu.library, available
from Aminet (util/libs/MMULib.lha).

CVS 1.11.1p1 AmigaOS-Port SSH-Update released
After two months since the first complete, ixemul.library indpendent release of
the AMigaOS port of CVS the authors (Olaf Barthel and Jens Langner) have released
a new update of the port.
In the last version the SSH support was missing and so some requests for an
implementation are send in. In this update it is fully integrated. So with this
version it is possible via SSH to check in/out directly from CVS servern. This is
needed fo example for Sourceforge-Accounts.
Besides many other important bugfixes since the last version now in this update
are processor optimized versions (020/030/040/060) contained, this should give
enhanced speed performance.
The latest version you will find here: http://amcvs.light-speed.de/
