types of antivirus scanners, speed improvements,
and limiting downloads to approved users. Support
has now been added for Inoculate AntiVir, AVP,
RAV, McAfee, Trend, and Sophos antivirus scanners,
password-protected sites, and filenames with
spaces and special characters.

Source: Freshmeat Daily News eCryptfs is an POSIX-compliant enterprise-class
stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux. It is
derived from Erez Zadok's Cryptfs, implemented

stores cryptographic metadata in the header of
each file written, so that encrypted files can be
copied between hosts; the file will be decryptable
with the proper key, and there is no need to keep
track of any additional information aside from
what is already in the encrypted file itself.
Think of it as a sort of "gnupgfs.'' It is a
native Linux filesystem, and can be built and
distributed as a stand-alone kernel module for
Linux 2.6.15 or higher.

Source: Freshmeat Daily News Since v2.04, bash has allowed you to intelligently program and extend its
standard completion behavior to achieve complex command lines with just a few
keystrokes. Imagine typing ssh [Tab] and being able to complete on hosts from
your ~/.ssh/known_hosts files. Or typing man 3 str [Tab] and getting a list of
all string handling functions in the UNIX manual. mount system: [Tab] would
complete on all exported file-systems from the host called system, while make

of dynamic events such as car crashes or other
large deformation events. It is kept very simple
to make it intuitive to use and easy to change and
extend. The program includes a NURBS based
pre-processor for modelling, a solver with editor,
a post-processor, and a graph plotter for results
viewing. Impact also interfaces with several other
programs, such as Nastran and Gmsh.

Changes:
The cluster solver is now back again. It can only
be run from the command line at this time
(cluster.sh). The icons in the preprocessor were
improved. A new command was added to project point
onto a curve or surface orthogonal and to project
a point onto a curve or surface in the vector
direction. The spline command can fit the curve to
the selected points. A tetrahedron 4-node solid
element can be defined and viewed. Finally, some
bugfixes in loading .impact files have been made.
