[linc] linc is not cyberoam


About linc

linc is a free multiplatform client for Cyberoam and 24online. Cyberoam is an employee internet management system for corporate networks. 24online is a subscriber access, authentication and accounting system for broadband ISPs.

linc was started because the client software for these programs is only supported on win32 platforms and the author needed to use it on *nix.

Supported features

Implements the latest version of the protocol. Runs as a daemon which is ideal for running on servers Runs robustly even in the event of intermittent server and/or communication failures Supports user suspend and resume using signals Supports either host level configuration via /etc/lincrc or user level configuration via ~/.lincrc Compiles on GNU/Linux and FreeBSD. Should compile on any POSIX platform. No guarantees. :)

Planned features

Support for older versions of the protocol and the ability to choose the version. Support for configuring the password in clear text. Support for monitoring and controlling the daemon via a unix domain socket or FIFO thus paving the way for shell-like, web-based or graphical interfaces.
