ff2a51b4aa6c31bd1316ffd02d7ca35e600d78e844b7b78b74b17c42d2a92ee4Linux IDS Patch - Version 0.6.1 - Dec 15, 1999. Lids is an intrusion detection system in the Linux kernel. This patch (Version 0.6.1) is for the Linux kernel 2.2.13. LIDS 0.6 has a brand new design. When LIDS is in effect, no one (including root) can change the protected files or directories and their sub-directories, and the protected append-only files can only be appended. It can also protect the hard disk's MBR, and can also disallow sniffing while the NIC is in promiscuous mode.

459b158b9f77b46da2f7d1e38a0f4641acadf6ff0ec6b6c27e325bdc8828808fRedir is a port redirector. Its functionality basically consists of the ability to listen for TCP connections on a given port, and, when it recieves a connection, to then connect to a given destination address/port, and pass data between them. It finds most of its applications in traversing firewalls, but, of course, there are other uses. It can run under inetd or stand alone (in which case it handles multiple connections).
