This scripts downloads the recommended Block List from the DShield.org page - and creates a BlackList file for use with Shorewall. If the Old list differs from the newly created - then shorewall will reload the list.

• Fetches the http://feeds.dshield.org/block.txt Recomended Blocklist and creates a shorewall-Blacklist.
• The Old used blacklist is moved to blacklist.old and used for comparison - if the new file is different, shorewall will reload the blacklist.
• The System handles errors as sensible as possible. If an error occurs - it bails out and send a note to the admin. Exception is the diff statement. (Have to handle it one day).

 PuTTY is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH for Win32 platforms, along with an xterm terminal emulator.

WARNING: Use of PuTTY, PSCP, PSFTP and Plink is illegal in countries where encryption is outlawed. I believe it is legal to use PuTTY, PSCP, PSFTP and Plink in England and many other countries, but I am not a lawyer and so if in doubt you should seek legal advice before downloading it.
 

 Since kernel 2.6.4, encrypted filesystem support is provided by the device mapper target dm-crypt. This utility provides a command-line interface for configuring this facility. It has integrated support for LUKS. cryptsetup is backwards compatible with the on-disk format of cryptoloop, but also supports more secure formats. This package also includes support for automatically configuring encrypted devices at boot time via the config file /etc/crypttab. When combined with newer versions of the debian initrd-tools and standard debian kernels, cryptoroot is also supported.
 

 Wrapper script to handle cryptsetup - it tries to take off most cryptic configuration options from the user.
 

 WinSCP is an open source free SFTP client and FTP client for Windows. Legacy SCP protocol is also supported. Its main function is safe copying of files between a local and a remote computer.
 

 This script takes a packet capture as argument, and will generate a report of the quality of the traffic seen inside that pcap. The report is meant to analyze data that is sent to monitoring tools via SPAN or TAP or Aggregation device, if the Monitoring tool can do a decent job with what it gets.

OS: Runs under Linux (Other OS possible when using a bash shell and the mentioned req.).
Requirements: tshark v2.0.2+, unix2dos to convert the report for Windows users.
