Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : fwknop Version : 0.5.0 Upstream Author : Michael Rash <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwknop/ * License : GPL Description : Firewall Knock Operator - advanced port knock daemon
(Include the long description here.) fwknop stands for "Firewall Knock Operator" and is a piece of software that I released at the DEFCON 12 conference in July, 2004 in Las Vegas: presentation slides fwknop implements network access controls (via iptables) based on a flexible port knocking mini-language, but with a twist; it combines port knocking and passive operating system fingerprinting to make it possible to do things like only allow, say, Linux-2.4/2.6 systems to connect to your SSH daemon. fwknop supports shared, multi-protocol port knock sequences along with both relative and absolute timeouts, and coded port knock sequences encrypted with the Rijndael block cipher.
