Please note this is an *ALPHA* release. If you don't know what that means
don't run it.
"SAMBA is a SMB/CIFS protocols file and print sharing server/client set
originaly made for UNIX world to cooperate with corresponding Windows and
OS/2 servers or clients. OS/2 has native implementation of SMB/CIFS

been updated for a long time and have some compatibility problems with
modern Windows SMB/CIFS implementations.

SW: Wireless LAN Monitor (WLAN) 1.11

03 Jan 2005 20:38:49
From: madodelDESPAM@ptdprolog.net
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/wlan/xwlan111.zip
" this program provides the following features:
monitoring the status of your Wireless LAN connection
support of multipe connection profiles, which can be exported and
imported
optionally configuring the TCP/IP interface of the Wireless LAN device
automatic connection scan on startup
automatic generation of WEP keys
detection of public Wireless LANs
execution of a script on (dis)connect events
The Wireless LAN Monitor is available both as a XCenter Widget as well as
a standalone program. If either XWorkplace or the OEM-Version EWorkplace
(contained in eComStation V1.1 or better) is installed, the usage of the
XCenter Widget is recommended because of the better integration into the
user interface. "
"New:
IP address range conflicts are now also dectected, when any other
interfaces is configured to a TCP/IP address of the same range of the
interface of the Wireless LAN device (before range was checked only at
that point of time when TCP/IP interface of the Wireless LAN device got
configured)
Fixed:
The configuration via DHCP did not work if another TCP/IP interface was
previously configured with a dhcpstrt command. In such cases the TCP/IP
interface of the Wireless LAN device remained deactivated. "

SW: RBLcheck 2.1 released.

03 Jan 2005 11:37:22
From: os2softwareDESPAM@besse.nl
RBLcheck 2.1 is released.
This new version features better header parsing and a very simple form of
a local blacklist.
RBLcheck identifies and tags spam mail. It can be used with POP clients
and mail servers.
I'm considering a stand-alone version and/or a mozilla/thunderbird
version. Please tell me whether you use the current version (with what
mail software and whether RBLcheck works good for you) and/or whether you
would want a stand-alone version; you can enter your comments in the forum
on the RBLcheck site.
