This program lets you check any block special device for errors on Linux systems. I wrote it since there are some faulty USB pen-drives around which claim to be e.g. 1GB in size but have only 512MB of flash memory installed physically.

Note: This program was only tested on Linux. If you want to port it to other platforms, or want to contribute in any other way, please mail me.

Installation

Download the tarball, unzip it and run make. That’s all, folks.

FTP-Proxy Port for FreeBSD

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

This page provides a port of OpenBSD’s ftp-proxy(8) program to FreeBSD. It was tested on FreeBSD/i386 6.2 and should work on FreeBSD 5 and 6. FreeBSD versions newer than 7.0 already ship this ftp-proxy. The versioning is based upon other OpenBSD related projects, like OpenNTPD or OpenBGPD.

# on an up-to-date ports tree ...
cd /usr/ports/ftp/ftp-proxy
make install clean

This program is part of the FreeBSD ports system.
