ProxyChains NG is based on ProxyChains. ProxyChains NG hooks network-related (TCP only) libc functions in dynamically linked programs via a preloaded DSO (dynamic shared object) and redirects the connections through one or more SOCKS4a/5 or HTTP proxies. Since Proxy Chains NG relies on the dynamic linker, statically linked binaries are not supported.
The psacct package contains several utilities for monitoring process activities, including ac, lastcomm, accton and sa. The ac command displays statistics about how long users have been logged on. The lastcomm command displays information about previous executed commands. The accton command turns process accounting on or off. The sa command summarizes information about previously executed commands.
Port Scan Attack Detector (psad) is a lightweight system daemon written in Perl designed to work with Linux iptables firewalling code to detect port scans and other suspect traffic. It features a set of highly configurable danger thresholds (with sensible defaults provided), verbose alert messages that include the source, destination, scanned port range, begin and end times, tcp flags and corresponding nmap options, reverse DNS info, email and syslog alerting, automatic blocking of offending ip addresses via dynamic configuration of iptables rulesets, and passive operating system fingerprinting. In addition, psad incorporates many of the tcp, udp, and icmp signatures included in the snort intrusion detection system (https://www.snort.org) to detect highly suspect scans for various backdoor programs (e.g. EvilFTP, GirlFriend, SubSeven), DDoS tools (mstream, shaft), and advanced port scans (syn, fin, xmas) which are easily leveraged against a machine via nmap. psad can also alert on snort signatures that are logged via fwsnort (https://www.cipherdyne.org/fwsnort/), which makes use of the iptables string match module to detect application layer signatures.
PScan is a program which attempts to scan C source files for common function abuses, which often lead to buffer overflows.
This package contains a commandline utility to explore the Public Suffix List, for example it checks if domains are public suffixes, checks if cookie-domain is acceptable for domains and so on.
This script produces C/C++ code or an architecture-independent binary object which represents a Deterministic Acyclic Finite State Automaton (DAFSA) from a plain text Public Suffix List.
The psmisc package contains utilities for managing processes on your system: pstree, killall, fuser and pslog. The pstree command displays a tree structure of all of the running processes on your system. The killall command sends a specified signal (SIGTERM if nothing is specified) to processes identified by name. The fuser command identifies the PIDs of processes that are using specified files or filesystems. The pslog command shows the path of log files owned by a given process.
Ptex is a texture mapping system developed by Walt Disney Animation Studios for production-quality rendering.
This package contains the library needed to run programs dynamically linked with Ptex.
The Public Suffix List is a cross-vendor initiative to provide an accurate list of domain name suffixes, maintained by the hard work of Mozilla volunteers and by submissions from registries. Software using the Public Suffix List will be able to determine where cookies may and may not be set, protecting the user from being tracked across sites.
