It is published under the GNU GPL. This program implements a client/server gateway to the SMS protocol (short messages sent to GSM / mobile phones). The server process listens on a specific TCP port, and forks a child for each incoming connection. Those child processes are responsible for getting the message parameters from the clients, and will then compete through a mechanism of semaphores and shared memory segments to get exclusive access to the sending hardware : a serially attached GSM module. This new version implements a full-fledged access control list mechanism and a new Solaris port of the client. See the Home Page or the CHANGELOG file for more details.

Thanks to Eberhard Moenkeberg and die Gesellschaft fuer wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH in Goettingen, Germany, for making the space available. PPDD is an encrypted device driver for Linux. It creates a device which looks like a disc partition on which you can then create an ext2 filesystem. The underlying data storage can be a file on a normal filesystem or a complete disc partition. All data written to this file or partition is encrypted using the blowfish algorithm. Special emphasis in the design has been placed on the fact that data on disc has a long lifetime and that encrypted backups may fall into the wrong hands. The use of master/working pass phrases and the ability to enter very long pass phrases on two lines add to the security. The driver concept also allows the root filesystem and the swap device to be encrypted. In effect this means that with the exception of a kernel and a small initial read-only ram-disc image, everything on disc is encrypted. The latest revision is 0.7 and supports the late 2.0 series and the early 2.2 series of Linux kernels. So far only the Intel-86 architecture is supported.
