Projects and stuff done by Claudio Jeker

While some people use their spare time to design freaky homepages I use my spare time to hack on not so flashy projects.
This page gives a short overview of my work.

OpenBSD stuff

• tun(4) - Integration of tap into tun(4).

  The Ethernet tunnel software network interface aka tap is now integrated into tun(4) as these two share about 95% of the code.

  Here are some older version of the tap(4) port for older releases:

  • A version for OpenBSD 3.5 can be found here.

  • A version for OpenBSD 3.4 can be found here.
    

  • OpenBSD 3.3 may try this version.

• Ports - Here a few ports I have done:
  • OpenVPN patch to support the new layer 2 tunneling mode of the patched tun(4).
  • p5-Crypt-Rijndael - Perl module for the AES crypto alogorithm. commited
  • faac - AAC audio encoder mainly used for mepg 4. Counterpart of faad.
  
  
• benchmarks

  some benchmarks and optimization I did after the posting
  of Felix von Leitners controversial benchmarks can be found here.

• more to come

WindowMaker Xinerama Support

Until now the patch adds the absolute minimum (better "smart" window placement) with minimal changes.
To be done: better menu handling, support "automatic" and "cascade" window placement

NOTE:

• only the absolute minimum is done.
• To check if it was compiled:
  • In a running WindowMaker open the exit dialog, if it is centered between the screens it is not running.
  • In the source check src/config.h after the ./configure run. If there is a line like '#define XINERAMA 1' xinerama is running.

qmail-ldap (inofficial server)

The Official site is here.

Please have a look at this site first!

What is it:

A patch to stock qmail-1.03 to get all user account information from an LDAP database. It primary target are POP toaster with huge numbers of users (from thousands up to millions).

Sometimes it is needed to have some unofficial patches because I do not have access to the main site and the patches are often developper releases.

At the moment there is no need for an interim release of qmail-ldap,
and please direct all questions to the qmail-ldap mailing-list qmail-ldap@qmail-ldap.org.
A mailing list for discussion of this patch is available,
send mail to qmail-ldap-subscribe@qmail-ldap.org

Note: This is NOT point-and-click-and-then-it-works ware!
You should have fairly good prior knowledge of qmail and LDAP.
