Etora lets you write readable, maintainable table definitions and automates much of the redundant work involved in creating tables. It reads a file of database table definitions and outputs the Oracle SQL to create or drop the tables and associated objects. All constraints, sequences, and triggers are intelligently named, which aids in interpetation of Oracle error messages. An Etora file can be roughly 1/3 the size of the equivalent SQL and consequently easier to read and maintain.
IPShutter lets you firewall off ports such as ssh, and selectively enable access with a one-time password. For example, if you want to log into the server from a friend's house, you pull out a list of one-time passwords and point the Web browser at a URL that contains one password. That tells the server to allow ssh connections from your friend's IP address for five minutes. Connections made in that period will stay up indefinitely.
Libfastcounters is a C library to maintain counters. It makes it convenient for a server program to count many kinds of events. Incrementing is fast, on the order of nanoseconds. Incrementing is atomic. Counters are shared across processes. Counters are persistent. You can address counters by number or by name. Libfastcounters includes a command line tool to create, modify, and read the persistent counters file.
