	The UNIX security checker by Dan Farmer. Run this on your        
	systems before someone else does.                                

satan-1.1.1.tar.Z         369K

	Network analysis program by Wietse Venema and Dan Farmer.

	'tiger' is a set of scripts that scan a Un*x system looking for  
	security problems, in the same fashion as Dan Farmer's COPS.     
        'tiger'	was originally developed to provide a check of UNIX      
        systems on the A&M campus that want to be accessed from off      
        campus (clearance through the packet filter).

logdaemon-5.6.tar.gz      221K                                          
	- Rlogin and rsh daemons that log the remote user name as well   
	as the remote host name, with tcp_wrapper access control.        
	These daemons are believed to be drop-in replacements for SunOS  
	4.x, Ultrix 4.x and SunOS 5.x (Solaris 2.x).                     

	- Login replacement that supports S/Key one-time passwords,      
	per-user/host/terminal access control, and with a fascist login  
	failure logging (tested with SunOS 4.x and 5.x).                 

	- Ftpd that supports S/Key one-time passwords, fascist login     
	failure logging, and logging of anonymous FTP xfers (tested      
	with SunOS 4.x and 5.x).                                          

	- Rexecd daemon that blocks access to the root account (tested   
	with SunOS 4.x and 5.x) with fascist login failure logging and   
	tcp_wrapper access control.                                      

portmap_5beta.tar.gz       18K                                          
	Replacement portmapper with access control. Makes it somewhat    
	harder to attack your RPC daemons, for example to steal YP       
	password maps or NFS file handles.  Must be linked against an    
	object library produced with a recent tcp wrapper (log_tcp)      
	release (see above). Tested with Ultrix [34], SunOS 4.1.x, HP-UX 
	8.0, AIX 3.1.5 (bsdcc compiler with -D_SUN).                     

	If you run SunOS 4, the securelib library (see above) is better  
	because it can also cope with direct attacks on your RPC         
	daemons (i.e. attacks without assistance from portmap).          

	SunOS4 users should replace their NIS/portmap daemons with fixed 
	ones from Sun that implement access control (patch 100482-xx).   

securelib.tar.Z            16K                                          
	Protect your RPC daemons against unauthorized access.            
	Shared library for SunOS 4.1 and later with replacement          
	routines for three kernel calls: accept, recvfrom, recvmsg.      
	These replacements are compatible with the originals, with the   
	additional functionality that they check the Internet address    
	of the machine initiating the connection to make sure that it    
	is "allowed" to connect. Written by William LeFebvre.            

swatch-2.2.tar.gz          43K                                          
        Excellent utility for monitoring log files, swatch will sit      
        and watch a log file, scan for specific entries in the log file, 
        and take the action you have determined. When used in conjunction
        with tcp_wrappers monitoring syslog, a sophisticated monitoring  
        system can be implemented.                                       

tcp_wrappers_7.5.tar.Z     96K                                          
	Wietse Venema's network logger, also known as TCPD or LOG_TCP.   
	These programs log the remote host name of incoming telnet,      
	ftp, ,rsh, rlogin, finger etc.  requests. Security options       
	are:  access control per host, domain and/or service; detection  
	of host name spoofing or host address spoofing; booby traps to   
	implement an early-warning system.  The current version          
	supports the System V.4 TLI network programming interface        
	(Solaris, DG/UX) in addition to the traditional BSD sockets.     

tripwire-1.2.tar.Z        451K                                          
        Tripwire creates a signature of binary files, and then checks    
        to see if these files have been modified. Helps track            
        modifications and alterations to binary files.

	Password cracker by Alec Muffett. Run this one on your password  
	files before someone else does. Can be run in parallel on a      
	bunch of workstations. A fine colection of word lists can be     
	found on black.ox.ac.uk in /wordlists                            

cracklib.tar.Z             36K                                          
	Proactive password security library by Alec Muffett.  The idea   
	is simple: try to prevent users from choosing passwords that     
	could be guessed by "Crack" by filtering them out, at source.

chrootuid1.2.shar.Z         7K                                          
	Chrootuid makes it easy to run a network service at low          
	privilege level and with restricted file system access.  At      
	Eindhoven University they use this program to run the gopher and 
	www (world-wide web) network daemons in a minimal environment:   
	the daemons have access only to their own directory tree, and    
	run under a low-privileged userid.  The arrangement greatly      
	reduces the impact of possible loopholes in daemon software.     

netlog-1.2.tar.gz          65K                                          
	An advanced network sniffer system to monitor your networks.     
	These programs are a part of the network security system used    
	by Texas A&M University.  It can be used for locating            
	suspicious network traffic.  The following programs are          
	included:                                                        

	tcplogger -  Log all TCP connections on a subnet                 
	udplogger -  Log all UDP sessions on a subnet                    
	extract   -  Process log files created by tcplogger or udplogger 

	All three programs require an ANSI C compiler.  Tcplogger and    
	udplogger use the SunOS 4.x Network Interface Tap (nit).         

tcpr-1.3.tar.gz            19K                                          
	Tcpr is a set of perl scripts that enable you to run ftp and     
	telnet commands across a firewall. Forwarding takes place at     
	the application level, so it's easy to control.
