qlogin

glogin is a program that can be used to cause a terminal (usually a virtual console) to be logged in automatically, without having to type a userid and password. Stick it in place of getty in /etc/inittab to have terminals come up logged in and at a shell prompt at every boot. Same purpose as 'alogin', but you use it a little differently, and it does a little more of the usual login stuff. It is a simple Perl program, and can be easily customized.

sash-plus-patches

sash-plus-patches is a collection of patches for the well known standalone shell, sash. The key features are the chroot, pivot_root, and losetup functions. These functions provide interfaces to the respective Linux system calls. They are especially useful when sash is used in a initial ramdisk ("initrd") environment. In addition, simple shell variable expansion support has been added.

runit

| Vit | 12.36 |
runit is a cross-platform Unix init scheme with service supervision; a replacement for sysvinit and other init schemes. It runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris, and can easily be adapted to other Unix operating systems. runit implements a simple three-stage concept. Stage 1 performs the system's one-time initialization tasks. Stage 2 starts the system's uptime services (via the runsvdir program). Stage 3 handles the tasks necessary to shutdown and halt or reboot.

Autopoweroff
| Pop | 97.15 |
|---|---|
| Vit | 3.76 |
Autopoweroff is a script that shuts down a computer at a specific time, but only if some conditions are met. It works well on home routers/firewalls where the machine can be switched off every night and powered back up in the morning. It can be configured to only shut down the server after any computers which depend on the server for Internet access have been shut down.

Erni
| Pop | 24.74 |
|---|---|
| Vit | 1.46 |
Erni replaces "su {user} -c {command}" that root uses to run commands as nonroot users, because this method requires that {user} have a valid login shell, leaving another avenue open to abuse the account. With Erni, {user} need not have a valid login shell, {user}'s group memberships may be specified on the command line, and {command} may be chroot'd. It may be used to kick off daemons and also to run interactive tools (e.g. an SQL browser) as the target user.

/etc/net
| Pop | 239.00 |
|---|---|
| Vit | 14.22 |
/etc/net represents a new approach to Linux network configuration tasks. Inspired by the limitations of traditional network configuration subsystems, /etc/net provides built-in support for configuration profiles, interface name management, removable devices, full iproute2 command set, interface dependencies resolution, QoS, and firewall configuration frameworks. /etc/net provides support for the following interface types: ethernet, WiFi (WEP), IPv4/IPv6 tunnels, PSK IPSec tunnels, VLAN, PLIP, ethernet bonding and bridging, traffic equalizer, Pent@NET, Pent@VALUE, SkyStar-2, TUN/TAP, OpenVPN TUN/TAP, usbnet, and PPP. Due to its modular structure, support for new interface types can be added without overall design changes.

UserRC
| Pop | 18.41 |
|---|---|
| Vit | 1.00 |
UserRC is a small program to run from rcNG to start or stop user processes at bootup and shutdown. A few security checks are performed, and the user's rcNG scripts are run as the UID of the owner.

eINIT
| Pop | 63.40 |
|---|---|
| Vit | 2.09 |
eINIT is an alternative init system. It's quite fast, since it can potentially be used without the help of any scripting at all, but it is still flexible and extremely modular. The focus is on speed and parallelisation, mostly with embedded devices and low-downtime servers in mind, and benchmarks do suggest that it's doing a fairly good job at that. It compiles cleanly (and should thus work, provided someone writes appropriate modules) on Linux, FreeBSD, and Darwin/Mac OS X.

cinit-conf aims to be a suite to help to configure cinit and migrate systems to cinit.
